Y5/6 Boys Football - 3rd Place
The first event of the year saw a fantastic turnout of 22 teams at Mowbray Rangers FC and a new Waltham record in the Y5/6 Boys Football with the team finishing in 3rd place.
Waltham began their first group match with a goalless draw to Great Dalby despite dominating the attacking play. Next up was a win against Bottesford (2.0) where the team played well at both ends of the pitch. It was another dominating display against St Marys, but the breakthrough did not come and an unlucky own goal towards the end of the game meant the team suffered their first defeat. The team re-grouped and showed their togetherness to pick up two more results to Stathern (2.0) and St Francis (0.0), and subsequently achieve qualification to the semi-finals.
In the semi’s the team competed well but fell to a 1.0 defeat to eventual winners Brownlow. A play-off match for 3rdand 4th place gave Watham the chance to finish on a high and as they did in the group, the team controlled the game to earn another victory over Stathern (2.0). A huge well done Boys.
