Match Report;
It took a while for the passing game to get to a fluid point but it did and this was marked up as a 5-0 although we scored more.
Ollie at centre forward and Thomas on the right wing had great games as younger players , Charlie Tucknott, Tom Burchell and Ned Rowland had dominate games in midfield whilst Charlie Lewis and Arthur Thilo controlled the defense and launched attacks throughout the game.
Again we rolled lots of positions so that players can have good opportunity to try other positions and skills, a purposeful performance.

U16B 5-4 Holcombe – Mercian League
Match Report;
Last year we had a gritty u14 game and this year was again a hard fought contest, culminating in a 5-4 win for a depleted team.
Thank you Chris Stevens who had a great game in goal, Tom Burchell (a great game in a holding role) and Luka Jones all stepping up to fill spaces. Without them there would have been no game.
The boys dug deep and it was soon evident that Holcombe were largely reliant on getting the ball to two very good strikers versus our more intricate passing game. The game swing both ways, some good enough finishing although we could have scored more from corners and circle penetrations. George Collingwood scored a great goal within a minute of the second half and at one point we were 4-1 up!
Holcombe fought back and the final goal for EG came in the last 10 mins. Josh Barrott and Ben Cleaver had excellent midfield displays, Fynn Jones played with assurance and a real maturity throughout the match. Tommy Sheehan ran endlessly and created opportunities for others throughout the game. Rhys Page, Felix and Charlie Lewis passed the ball well and worked really hard to chase down the ball throughout the game. A pleasure to coach on a cold day in Kent!
