2011-04-Wigton Moor U14 WRCFA CUp Winners

Congratulations to Wigton Moor Under 14′s who became the West Riding County FA Junior Trophy Champions after a 2-1 victory over Wortley FC Juniors at West Riding County FA HQ. Steve Daniels, who was a constant danger throughout the game, put Wigton into the lead with a fantastic volley which crashed into the Wortley net. After 20 minutes Wortley Juniors were on level terms through a well taken free kick by Connor Hodgson. The remainder of the first half was an evenly contested affair with both teams having chances to get their noses in front. The second half Wigton put Wortley under pressure throughout most of the half and their reward came 5 minutes from time when Daniel Hebditch lobbed Connor Crossley in the Wortley goal to send the Wigton contingent into raptures. Wigton held out for the remaining minutes to win the game 2-1. Having come so close in the Under 12 County Cup final two years ago, Wigton went one better to lift a well derserved Junior Trophy trophy. Well done to Richard Hayhurst and the team from all at the Garforth Junior Football League.

Churwell Lions U13s New Secker Cup Winners 2011

lions-u14-0411

” Manager Lee Mullins, was overwhelmed with delight, as Churwell lions under 13 were crowned “Heavey Wollen and district FA cup final winners 2011, last Thursday evening”
Held at the stadium of Ossett Albion JFC, and, with a huge crowd there to watch, the Lions faced a big strong side in Norristhorpe juniors.
Norristhorpe started strongly and put Lions under early pressure, and Lions keeper Danny Crook was on hand to make several crucial saves.
Full backs Corey Jenkins and Corey Tebbutt held firm along with sweeper Seth Nothers. The Lions began to settle, and with 20 mins on the clock, the Lions were awarded a free kich 25 yards from goal. Jordan Mullins stepped up and struck the ball perfectly, to put the lions 1-0 up. More end to end football followed but the Lions were on a roll, and Bradley Longhorn went on a dazzleing solo run into the 18 yard box and smashed a beauty into the top corner, 2-0 Lions. Tyley Walton was having a cracking game in midfield but his goal from 40 yards out was denied for offside. Captain Martin Devine was not to be denied and put in a solid performance. Wingers William Patrick and Brandon Byrom were fantastic and caused Norristhorpe problems. Tayler Cross showing his speed up front played a perfect ball to fellow forward Leon Papadakis, who burst through and beat the keeper from 10 yards. Half time and 3-0 to the lions. The second half started a lively affair with neither teams prepared to give ground. Thomas Harrison went close with a good shot from ouside the area. The lions had a change of keeper and Henry Pick up came on and put in a good vocal display. Norristhorpe pulled a goal back from a free kick and put the Lions under late pressure but the Lions were going to have thier night and Papadakis broke the Norristhorpe defence to slot the ball past the keeper to make it 4-1.
A massive thanks to all supporters that turned up in thier droves, the boys appreciated it
