Huge congratulation’s to Bootham Futsal Club – York U14s, who remained unbeaten all day, beating a very strong Hull side in the final and were worthy winners today.

A final word from Chairman Chris, ‘The last 2 Sundays have been amazing from the U10s and U12s and today the U14s played some fantastic futsal. This is one of the smallest age groups we have at the club and a team we would love to expand. We hope that after today we can get a few more girls interested in playing this fantastic game. Listening to the parents and coach’s comments after the games, it is clear they think the game is great fun to be involved in – goals, saves, great individual and team play – what’s not to like!
