U14s take on Sheffield

This match was a really close game, and good to watch.
Winning 2 quarters, and drawing 2 quarters meant the teams were evenly matched, and after a slow start, Stockport looked stronger the more the game went on.

Final Score:  Stockport 8  Sheffield 6
Quarter scores:  2-2 / 2-1 / 2-1 / 2-2

Next fixture: away vs Timperley A

The U12s away game against Ashton was cancelled.

Away at Cheadle Hulme (U14s)

A local 'derby' game, and we were 6 players missing! After a slow start in Q1, Stockport tried to pull it back, but failed to find the goal on a few occasions.  A few goals on the scoresheet by the end of the game, and Adam C got his first assist - well done!

Final Score:  Cheadle Hulme 17  Stockport 3
Quarter scores:  6-1 / 4-1 / 4-1 / 3-0

Next fixture: at home v Sheffield

U12s
played at home against Sheffield, and it was a very close game - with Sheffield taking an early lead, Stockport had all the work to do.  With Rolo away, thanks to Colly and Dave for some good coaching, which gave us a draw, after some hard work.

Final Score:  Stockport 4  Sheffield 4
4 different goal scorers

Next fixture:  away at Ashton

Down already!

U14s at home against Brooklands

The scoreline of today's match doesn't really reflect the effort the boys made.  After a slow Q1, they did pick up, but just failed to find the net. A good go against strong opposition.

Final Score:  Stockport 0  Brooklands 16
Quarter scores:  0-6 / 0-4 / 0-2 / 0-4

Next fixture : away at Cheadle Hulme

Happy Birthday to Coach Stevie for Tuesday!

Another home game and another win under their belts for the U12s.

Next fixture:  at home (again!) v Sheffield

Goalie : "are you two old enough to be in this game?"...?


Tickling?


If the ball's on the right- what are the players on the left up to?


Here it comes!
