Qualified for Regional Finals 6/5/18 - Clifton College Bristol
East Devon U10 Girls continued to impress at the county finals taking the silver medal position and a place in the Regional finals.
A fantastic team spirit , great team work , high skill level and fantastic vocal support carried the team through to the regional finals , suffering their first defeat in over 30 matches against a very strong Marjon team the team bounced back scoring 8 goals in 12 minutes against Tiverton B to set up a crunch match against local rivals Isca . The Isca game was a very close match with East Devon taking an early lead with a great team goal , isca had to chase the game and the East Devon defence remained solid until a great strike from isca to draw the game. This set up a fantastic final round of games only a win for East Devon against a strong Tiverton team was going to achieve a medal but which colour ?
East Devon pressed hard against a well organised Tiverton team eventually breaking their defence down to score the decisive goal and take a well -deserved win , then the wait to see if it was gold ,silver or bronze.
Silver !!!!!
Well done team , well done supporters . Never have I seen so many smiling faces , proud parents and smug looking coaches .
We will need to prepare for the regionals , please try and play in the Club day on the 21/4/18 and the world cup festival tournament at St Peters school on Sunday 29th April 18 (Details to Follow)
Thank you all .
