Crooklands Casuals U10 Oranges

🏆 PLAYER OF THE WEEK – KOBE 🧡⚽️

A huge well done to Kobe, who picks up Player of the Week after a fantastic performance in today’s Autumn Cup Final! 👏🏆

Kobe brought energy from start to finish, never stopped running and put in some excellent tackles. He absolutely ran his socks off for the team and gave everything right to the final whistle. 💪🔥

He was also calm and composed on the ball, with his passing spot on throughout. ⚽️👏

A thoroughly deserved Player of the Week, Kobe! 🧡

Well done! Keep working hard and keep that energy going! 👏⚽️🏆

🥈 U10 AUTUMN CUP RUNNERS-UP! 🥈

What a journey these boys have been on! 🧡⚽️

Today didn’t end the way we hoped, but there is so much for these boys to be proud of.

When we look back at last season’s Autumn Cup, the boys didn’t even qualify for the Shield competition.

Fast forward to this season and look how far they’ve come…

🏆 AUTUMN CUP FINALISTS
🥈 AUTUMN CUP RUNNERS-UP

They’ve gone all the way to the final of the full Autumn Cup competition — and that is a fantastic achievement. 👏👏

Every single player has played their part in this cup run. Whether on the pitch, stepping into different positions when needed, supporting their teammates or working hard in training, this has been a team achievement from start to finish. 🧡

The improvement from last season has been massive, and it’s a real reflection of the hard work, commitment, teamwork and development these boys have shown.

Today might hurt, and that’s okay. But one result doesn’t take away from everything they’ve achieved together.

From not qualifying for the Shield last season to becoming Autumn Cup runners-up this season.

That’s progress.
That’s teamwork.
That’s something to be incredibly proud of. 🥹🧡

Keep your chins up, boys. We couldn’t be prouder of you all! 👏⚽️🏆

🔴🔴“Sorry for being crap.”🔴🔴

Imagine hearing that from a referee after a grassroots football match.

Then imagine finding out **the referee is 14 years old and refereeing their first ever game.**

Fourteen.

Learning. Nervous. Making mistakes. Trying to get decisions right while players, coaches and adults react to every call.

We give young players time to develop.

⚽⚽Young referees need exactly the same.⚽⚽

Without referees, there is no game. And if we make their first few experiences miserable, we shouldn't be surprised when they don't come back.

So next time a young referee gets something wrong, remember:

👏They might be learning too.👏

Give them time. Give them encouragement. Give them a reason to come back next weekend.

Crooklands Casuals Oranges U10 🧡⚽️

🏆 SEMI-FINAL WIN! 🏆

From coach Steve: Couldn’t be any prouder of all the boys! ❤️

If I’m being honest, during the warm-up I had my doubts. I wasn’t sure the lads were fully up for it, and even going into the pre-match team talk, I didn’t feel like we were on cloud nine.

How wrong I was! 😂👏

Everyone took on board everything we discussed before the game, and it really showed once we got out there. We dominated the game from start to finish, kept our cool under pressure and never allowed the opposition to settle into their game plan.

It was a proper team effort from everyone, and the lads should be incredibly proud of each other. Absolutely buzzing with the performance! 👏🔥

And now we have something even bigger to celebrate…

🏆 WE’RE THROUGH TO THE AUTUMN CUP FINAL! 🏆

The boys will face Askam U10 Blues in the final next week. 🧡⚽️

What a journey these lads are having, and what a fantastic achievement for the whole team. 👏

Big well done, boys! 🧡⚽️ You should all be incredibly proud of yourselves! 🏆

‼️PLEASE SHARE - MISSING! ‼️

One of our players has lost their boot bag containing their new trainers at the club today. Photo of the boot bag below. The bag was left at the side of the pitch and we think accidentally taken by another player. This could be any player that has played at our club today.

Please can you share this post so we can get the players bag & trainers back to him? 🙏 Thank you! ⚽️🧡
