County Football Competition 2011

Hi All,

On Saturday 19th November our Scouts took part in the County Football competition at the Futsal Arena in Birmingham.

Scout Groups from all over the county took part, including Groups from Rae Valley, Sutton Colfield West & Tame Valley, as well as those from our own District of Sutton Coldfield East.

The teams were separated into two leagues and the teams in each league played each other once.

Points were awarded as follows;

3 points for a Win
1 point for Draw
0 points for a Loss

The winners of each League then played each other in the final.

Our team did extremely well and didn't lose a single game.

One match went to a penalty shoot out and Harry, our goalkeeper, was definitely man of the match, saving all of the penalty kicks against him.

This year we made it all the way to the final against the winners of last year, Tame Valley.

It was a close game and in the end we only lost by a goal to nil.

Well done Tame Valley and to our own team for playing so well.

We would therefore like to thank the following Scouts for taking part;

Jacob H, Matthew, Kelsey, Harry, Christian, Liam, Aaron, Omar & Luke

We would also like to thank the handful of parents who stayed to watch.

All the best,

Adam & Jason
