Congratulations to our U11 Players of the Match winners Connor & Zac ✨🏆✨

“1st U11s friendly against Halton

A great performance from the entire team saw some lovely goals and passing play was fantastic. At moments we played as individuals and the game slowed down but on the whole it was a strong team effort. Very happy coach and glad to take the win.

Player of the match was Connor, bagging two great goals but more importantly putting the defensive work in and winning tackles.

Spectators player of the match was Zac. A solid defensive match meant the team could play an attacking game with confidence. Well done to both players. 👏”

Excellent start as U11 ✨

Congratulations and Thank You Andy 🏆

"Like all of us Managers Andy started with the club as a Manager for his lad 16 years ago and took them all the way from under-7s to under-16s. He even managed to get to a play in a final at the global arena in a cup match.
After the under-16s he ran the Cockerham open-aged summer team and managed them to win the league and cup in the same season, which is a fantastic achievement.

14 years ago he stepped up to being Chairman of the club and he has been the main drive behind the fantastic growth of this club over the year. He has been the man that's taken us from a couple of pitches at Cockerham to now having eight pitches spread all over including Cockerham, Pilling, Bilsborrow, Winmarleigh and Scorton. He has also sorted countless amounts of funding to allow all of these pitches to have all the equipment we have today. He created safe storage and permanent fixed goals in place,( which when I started 10 years ago, we didn't have we had to make our nets every game which was very fun in the wind, rain and cold). If you know, you know!!
He was also one of the main drives that managed to sort out the levelling of Cockerham pitches, which some of you will appreciate how much this has made a huge difference to the playing on that field. As chair, he is the man that has dealt with every single player registration each year. Every meeting that the league holds, any problems within the club, he takes care of. He also takes on cutting of most of the pitches and is the man who lines every single Pitch.

To try and summarise what Andy does in the backgrounds of the club, with him stepping down we have had to find four volunteers to take over all his roles!!!!

For that dedication, time, effort, and sacrifice we cannot put into words how grateful each and every one of us at the club are to you. For all you have done for us and the hundreds of kids you have made a difference to over the years. For this we would like to present you with a little token of our appreciation from us all, and a huge round of applause from you all, please to our retiring chairman Andy Peck." (Speech by Mark Pye)

Congratulations Mark 🏆

"I also have another trophy to give to a Manager who has coached his team for the last ten years and is finally calling it a day.
He has both been a fantastic servant to the club over the last decade and has been a great help to me acting as my vice chairman.
So, for dedicated service to the club, this trophy goes to Mark Pye. Enjoy your retirement 😊"

Very well deserved!!
