Saturday 14th October Hucknall Sports U9s Whites 7 West Bridgford Warriors 0

Sports have played with great confidence and enthusiasm this season but this Saturday at home to the Warriors was not one of their better games. Sports didn't seem to really get into it and, although 7 goals were scored, at times were very scrappy. The first goal, a few minutes into the first half, came from Kibble when his first shot at goal went in off the post.

A few minutes later McShane scored with a lob over the keepers head. Rose came off after a knock to his ankle and was replaced by Trueman. Not long before half time Towers scored the first of his hat-trick. The second half started with a cross from Ellis finding Kibble who hit it over the keepers head and into the back of the net. This was followed by another goal from Towers. McShane went off to be replaced by Rose, who then scored with his first shot at goal. Trueman saw several shots at goal go wide and Rose hit the post but then Towers scored just before the end of the game with this third making this his second hat-trick this season Credit must be given to the Warriors boys, especially Bassford who was playing his first game as keeper and made some superb saves, the parents and management. They are a friendly team to play and even though they lost they never gave up trying. McShane was man of the match.
