Boys under 14s 

West Midlands’ u14 Boys lost 1-0 to Staffordshire at Stafford Town but this game was much closer then when the two sides last met in the ESFA Trophy. It was end to end all evening, with both teams spurning some great chances, and in truth it could have ended 5-5 on the balance of play. Nevertheless, our hosts did get the one goal that really mattered and it was very frustrating to come away with nothing having earlier hit the bar and the post!

West Midlands’ u14 Boys entertained Staffordshire in this ESFA Cup game at Castle Vale with a place in the last eight of the National cup competition at stake but we were eventually well beaten and our old rivals will now be at home to Hertfordshire in the Quarter Final.

West Midlands’ u14 Boys travelled to Warwickshire and came away with a remarkable victory in their first Midland Counties Federation League game of the season but this was by no means a one man performance. Harri Tom Afewerki and Gabe Crowton each scored a brace and George Kumar, Ralph O’Connor and Harry Webb were also on target but this was an evening when all the lads were truly on fire. !
