U12's Join U10's in Midlands Finals
Posted by Nobody on 18 March 2012
The team with only 7 player worked hard to beat Harborne, Sutton and Old Sills in their group to set up a Semi final with Olton. Oliver Mansell and Sam Lowe both scored goals in the group games on their Cov & NW debuts. The team kept improving and with Finlay Williams alomost unbeatable in goal and Andrew Delow carving teams open with some skillfull running it was Coventry who progressed 3-1 winners over Olton and set up a repaet of the U10's final.
The final wa s a high quality affair and Daniel Murray defended superbly to keep the game close. Jack Bennet was working tirelsessly and Ezra Lingarde hassled the Rugby defence. At full time the game was tied 1-1 so extra time loomed. Unfortunately Coventry were unable to keep out a good Rugby attack and could not reply in time and lost out 2-1.
The team will now begin prepparing for the Midlands Finals on Sunday 1st April at Rugby School.
Well done to all the boys who played so well and worked so hard.
