JUNIOR ACADEMY FOCUS: UNDER 8 SELECT

29 Feb 2024 | Junior Academy, Latest News

Our second Junior Academy Focus of this week comes from our Under 8 Select side who were victorious at the weekend. 

It was a good start in the first third with the side being first to everything and limiting chances for the opposition and those that did come were dealt with well.

The second third saw a proper team performance with everyone defending as a unit and attacking in numbers.

In this third, the Young Silkmen created plenty of chances and went into halftime in the lead.

Each third, the intensity from the off was strong, but tiredness crept in towards the end resulting in some unenforced errors.

It was a brilliant team performance by our Under 8’s with bright futures ahead.
