Broadstone U13 Braves Vs Weymouth Wyke Victoria (Dorset Cup Match) 04/10/09

6 - 1 to the Braves!!!!

What a fantastic start to the Cup with the Braves hammering home a 6 goal win against Weymouth Wyke Victoria at our home ground.

Joe Jordan continued his good form scoring another hatric, with Chris Birrell, Ben Stocker and Ollie Cornellius Jones planting some superb goals in the back of the net!

The Braves continue to go from strength to strength and with two new additions to the team who will be registered imminently (as of 18/10/09), Ben Blade and Luke Woodhouse, we'll be a formidable team as we progress though the league.

Well done Team! Excellent result!!!!

Broadstone Braves Vs Weymouth Cougars 11/10/09 - Away

Braves 4 - Cougars 5...

Talk about tense!!! The Braves started off well, dominating the possession but conceded an early goal to the Cougars. Undeterred, we came back hard and pulled a goal back shortly afterwards.

Some excellent 'skilling' of the opposing right wing and defence enabled Josh Powley to put in a number of cross balls early on but unluckily we couldn't find the back of the net...OOO's and AAA's abundent from the onlooking parents! Suddenly, we dug deep and despite being 3 - 1 down at one stage Ben Stocker and Josh worked well to draw the ball into the Cougars 18 yard box where ollie Cornellius Jones and Chris Birrell monopolised on their excellent positioning.

The Braves defence worked hard to hold the line and some good positioning saw Cougars caught off-side on more than one occasion. Despite our best efforts we were realy unlucky to concede a final goal in the last minutes of play...again, an outstanding performance by the Braves with some superb goal keeping by Sam Klein.

As we progress through the season we're getting stronger and stronger, our defensive play is becoming more consistent and with some set moves developing from kick off we're applying pressure throughout the match. With some development at both mid-field and defense we stand a very good chance of progressing up the league table.

Well done fellas! Paul.
