Overall it was a very good day out for all the players, with lots of learning and more game experience under the belt. All the coaches were really pleased by the attitude and effort shown by all the players and each week we are getting that little bit better and better. Huge thank you to Danny and Dave at Hull Futsal for the invitation, and we look forward to welcoming them to York in the very near future.

Special thank you to Jessica in the U12s for helping us out!

Player of the matches for the U10s was Katie H – she worked her socks off both in attack and defence, being unlucky to not score on several occasions, and best of all, she does it all with a huge smile on her face! Fantastic performance, well played Katie!

Player of the matches for the U12s was Freya – she scored a wonderful hat-trick in game 5 and worked hard throughout. The coaches particularly liked the way she recovered back and made some important tackles. Well played Freya!
