Under 11 Tigers teams proudly progress to final stages of Brinklow tournament

GNP Sports Under 11 Tigers took 2 teams to play in the 5v5 tournament in Brinklow on Sunday and had some great success. Team 1 won all games bar one in their group stage, drawing with a strong Christ the King, thus topping their group going into the knockout stages. Team 2 lost one game but also managed to win the rest, with one impressive result winning 7-0. This meant they finished 2nd in the other group resulting in both teams being drawn together in the Semi Finals. Tigers Team 2 played some brilliant football and showed great fight and determination to see off Tigers Team 1 and reach the Final. They went up against Christ the King, and played some good stuff and fought hard, but just fell short losing narrowly 2-1. All in all a fantastic achievement for the Under 11’s. A great sign of the all-round nature of the performance was every outfield player managing to get on the scoresheet - fantastic! The boys go again in the next tournament in Rugby.
