| The popular
District 6-a-side football competition took place
on Sunday 23 June 2002 at Binfield Football Club.
Both Stags and Wolves entered a team.
Unfortunately many of the Wolves in the team
failed to turn up on the day and so their team
was assisted by 2 from Stags. The Stags team consisted
of Robert Wellington (Captain), Richard Seal,
Craig Lock, Oliver Rhodes, Daniel Moynehan,
Francis Albery, Matthew Molyneux and Ben
Molyneux. Jonathan Dye and Christopher Seal from
Stags played for Wolves due to their player
shortage. Thanks to Mr Wellington we have a rare team
picture including Akela - who
normally hides behind the camera!
Before
they could start to play the team had to warm up.
The
Qualifying Rounds
Wolves were put in League 1 with 1st Ascot
A (who failed to field a team), 1st Binfield
Wolves A, 1st Binfield Seeonee B and 1st South
Ascot B. They won all their matches and went
through to the semi-final as the winners of
league 1.
Stags were put in League 2 with 1st
Sunningdale B (who failed to field a team), 6th
Bracknell, 1st Binfield Seeonee A and 1st Ascot
(All Saints) B. They first played 6th Bracknell
although this was in lieu of Sunningdale. Stags
won convincingly 9-0. The next match was against
Seeonee A who proved to be good opponents. Stags
lost 3-1. Then it was 6th Bracknell again with
another 9-0 win for the Stags. Finally they
played Ascot and won 4-2. The winners of league 2
were Seeonee A but with 3 wins behind them and a
good goal difference, the Stags won the 'best of
the rest' place.
We
have some action shots from the Stags games:
The
Semi-Finals
Both 2nd Bracknell teams made it to the
semi-finals. Wolves played 1st South Ascot A -
the winners of league 3. The result was a 0-3 win
to South Ascot.
Stags were up against Binfield Seeonee A - the
only team to beat them in the qualifying rounds.
The result was another win to Binfield with a 0-3
score.
The
Finals
With both the 2nd Bracknell teams knocked out,
the final was between 1st South Ascot A and 1st
Binfield Seeonee A. The result was a 3-0 win for
1st Binfield. We got our certificates
from the District Commissioner and posed
in the goal for one last picture.
Thank
you to all the Cubs and parents who supported
this event. The referee team made a point of
complimenting the crowds on their good behaviour.
This
was a District Event.
