• Friday 23 June 2023 Football Team Report - 23 June 2023 Fairstead vs Whitefriars 3-2 Win!Very different surroundings for us this week, an away game. We played on a much larger pitch and increased the players to 9 a side. We normally play 7 a side so this was a big challenge for our team. We were into the wind in the first half which took a while to get used to. We conceded first, a fantastic save from Codey but unfortunately the rebound fell to their striker, 0-1.We responded well, creating multiple chances. Josh had shots saved in the 6th and 13th minutes. Iwan also tested the keeper with two excellent shots. We pressed high up the pitch with Alise and Jacob intercepting passes in midfield. This lead to counter attacks resulting in passes by Jacob and David through to our attackers. The defence held strong with tackles from Ashton, Ollie and David. We tackled well with full commitment from Alise and George. We were unlucky to be losing at half time.After half time, Codey makes a save worthy of professional level, rushing out at their

• Friday 9 June 2023 Football Team Report - 9th June 2023 A fantastic game from both sides. We welcomed back Sam and Alise who missed our last few matches. It was a very calm start from the team. Alise and Finley were very composed on the ball and this allowed us to get control of the game. Codey continued to be at his excellent best making a few brave saves, rushing out at the attackers. We were unlucky to concede early on but this didn’t stop us. The attack of Josh, Alise, Sam and Iwan created lots of pressure, winning the ball up the pitch. Some great passing created a few chances but we didn’t manage to score. George came on after 12 minutes and got our equaliser 1-1! A shot from distance was powerful enough to beat their keeper.Second half! We dominated the first 15 minutes. A great run, turn and shot from Josh (video 1) put us in front 2-1! A few minutes later and we had another. Iwan striking the ball into the bottom corner 3-1! Excellent calm defensive play from Ollie and David kept us in control. Matas came on with Jacob
• Friday 19 May 2023 Football Team Report - May 19th 2023 Whitefriars vs St Martha'sOur second game of the season, we played two St Martha teams, one in each half.The first half ended 3-3! We were a real threat on the counter attack. The defence of Ashton and David threw everything at the St Martha attack. We were unlucky as a couple of the shots were rebounds from excellent saves from Codey. Brilliant assists from Iwan and even Codey from goalkeeper! Josh, Iwan and Jacob scored near identical goals, sprinting past the defence and striking the ball past the goalkeeper. We created more chances in the first half, with great passes and runs from George. Finley and Ollie came on in defence and showed excellent determination. Oliver put excellent determination and effort in the middle of midfield.Second half we conceded 3 goals, losing the match 6-3, the fresh players having the edge.

• Friday 5 May 2023 Football Team Report - May 5th 2023 Match Report - Whitefriars vs South Wootton.We had our first fixture last night. We played a strong South Wooton side who had played fixtures together before.A slow start to the game for us, under a lot of pressure from SW, in the 3rd minute Codey made a brilliant save followed by a last ditch block from Ollie. Unfortunately we conceded a great goal and went 0-1 down. With more brilliant defending from Ashton and Jacob, we stayed in the game. We managed to counter some attacks with some driving runs from Josh, who held the ball upfront excellently.After a wonder save from Codey, tipping the ball on to the crossbar, we had a lovely passing move between Jacob and Sam, Sam then played a lovely through ball to Josh, who powered the ball into the bottom corner! 1-1.We had a couple of promising moments in attack with Josh having some good shots on target.
