Vicars Cross Tournament
A great individual goal from Manor Bullets was the separation between winning the Shield and losing. We played so well in many of our games en route to the final and came very close to winning before the knock out blow in the final few minutes.
Well done to all the girls who did so well today. There were some very good teams in the u12s and we did AFC Waverton proud. A good end to a great season.

Group Stage:
v Chester City girls - drew 1-1 (Keira)

Well done - Caitlin, Kiera, Hollie, Emma, Ellie, Lily, Elia and our special guest Liz.
Thanks to all players who played in positions that they didn't really want to, and especially to those who volunteered to go in goal and did brilliantly - Ellie, Liz, Hollie, Kiera and Caitlin.
Thanks all the parents, to Vicars Cross Dynamoes for the excellent organisation and to David Harker for coming down to support and bringing some more water supplies.
