A super Year 6 Mixed Football Tournament at Tanbridge tonight. Southwater emerged victorious from a topsy-turvy Upper Tier group as Heron Way failed to convert their advantage going into the last round. The Middle Tier was similarly unpredictable, Castlewood A winning it despite their last match defeat. More clarity however in the Lower Tier with St Mary’s Horsham going on an unstoppable winning streak to win out.
In the Phase 1 groups Leechpool A, Kingslea and Southwater blasted through but Group C was more tense. With the first two matches in the group drawn Heron Way was in danger of coming bottom by virtue of both their draws being goalless but with 8 seconds remaining in their second match against Leechpool B they scored to propel themselves to top spot.
Having been on the verge of oblivion the Herons then took out Southwater with another last minute strike in their first Phase 2 match and followed it with a draw versus Leechpool A. Southwater recovered their mojo with a 1-0 win over Kingslea and an impressive 3-0 over Leechpool A but the Heron Way brinksmen remained in the driving seat going into the night’s last round of matches. But it wasn’t to be as Kingslea pooped their party 1-0 leaving Southwater pre-eminent and they were even deniedsecond spot on the basis of similar points and goal difference but less goals scored.
Next week it’s the turn of the year 5+6 girls and let’s hope it’s just as exciting!
