Yesterday saw us take on Sir John Lawes, the ever strong outfit, who always present a strong test for our football teams. The year 7 and 9 teams were at home and both managed to pick up wins. The year 9's took the game 2-0 with goals from Toby Parker and Tommy Wright against a well organised and battling opposition. The score could have been more if it wasn't for the woodwork as the team hit the bar 3 times. Dan Mair also showed his talent producing a fantastic double save at 0-0 which may have been the turning point.
The year 7 team again showed more sign of what is to come this year after scoring 5 without reply in what was a very one sided encounter. The team played some fantatsic football at times and are already making huge progress both individually and as a team.
Away at Sir John Lawes the year 8's and 10's both battled hard to ear themselves a draw. The year8's again playing some fantastic football were able to maintain their unbeaten record as they came from 1-0 down to take the lead 3-1 through Goodall (x2) and Ed Freer before being pegged back late on to 3-3. The year 10's thought they had earnt their first win against SJL in 4 years after going 1-0 up early on, however a second half equaliser was enough to share the points even through sustained attacks from the red and black outfit.
Another successful week for Sandringham's football teams. Next week sees games against Cavendish, let's hope there's no more clashes with the RWC 2011 again!
