WINNING ISN'T EVERYTHING....... BUT WANTING TO WIN IS.
MATCH REPORTS
08 September 2010: FRIENDLY V CK Under 12's
Another good run out for both squads and a game of two halves for the U13's. The first half, while playing three touch only, saw good competitive play, great passing, and some clinical finishing. Goals from George Daykin 2, 2 excellent headers from player of the match Alfie Horlock from two great corners from James Broadbent, and a goal from Adam Sanders capped a good half. However in the second half when the three touch rule stopped so did the passing. The postional discipline of the players seemed to be lacking and the U12's took full advantage to get back into the game. The U13's managed to score further goals from Charlie Hampton and Adam Sanders but will be working hard in training on Friday ready for the league start. Good luck to the U12's for their season and many thanks to all their squad for the excellent pre season games.
04 September 2010: FRIENDLY v Stockbridge
It was always going to be a tough work out for CK against a strong Stockbridge team from division 1 and with also only 11 of the squad available for selection but CK played with an excellent attitude and spirit. The passing and movement at times was a joy to watch and this brought about the goal of the game by player of the match George Daykin, who went on to complete a fine hatrick. An excellent passing move finished superbly. CK did allow their concentration to slip midway through the second half for a ten minute spell and this led to Stockbridge taking control of the match. But in a game where the scoreline definatley didn't tell the whole story CK can be proud of their performance.
01 September 2010: FRIENDLY v CK Under 12's
The younger boys again proved to be a stern test for the squad who again played 3 touch throughout the match. Jord Mumford opened the scoring in the first half and in the second Adam Sanders, Matt Lovering, and capt Tom Haynes scored some fine goals. More pleasing though was the way the team passed the ball especially in the second half. The squad are getting to know each other more and more and improving with each game. Player of the match was Sam Bott who worked tirelessly on the left of midfield and showed some fine touches.
27 August 2010: FRIENDLY v CK Under 12's
This pre season friendly started with a minutes applause from all players and parents in honour of Dave Harland who sadly passed away recently. He will be greatly missed by everyone at CK Andover.
A great pre season workout for both teams. The 3 touch rule for the under 13's encouraged them to pass quicker and to think more about passing before getting the ball. Both teams scored some excellent goals with Jord Mumford 3, Charlie Hampton 2, Tom Haynes 1, and player of the match Adam Sanders capping an excellent performance with a goal, scoring for the under 13's. The under 12's continued their fine form of last season and pushed the older boys all the way. Lots of positive's for the first competitive match of the new look U13 squad.
