Fusion U13 Tournament
Saturday 16th May
Pharaoh’s
What a great start to the tournament season the Pharaoh’s had today!
We played a total of 5 games in the group stage, winning all of our matches - what an achievement!
Our first match we played a little rusty and not like the team that we have the potential to be, but after a pep talk from Vicki, we improved our play and teamwork, which really paid off.
We had to win our last game to proceed to the semis - we were against Magic, who were a strong team - however with grit and determination, some super strong defending and on point shooting we won the game 17-11.
Every Single player put 110% in to all the games to get us through to the semis, where we played Essex Met. This started off a close game, however in the end we were able to turnover many of their center passes enabling us to win 11-5, pushing us through to the finals.
In the final we played Turnford, we have played them in the past and they defeated us so the pressure was on.
However ,this time it was a different story. The game was incredibly tight and at 1/2 time we were winning by 1 goal, however Turnford came back strong in the second half turning over a couple of our center passes.
The team did not give up, we showed great resilience throughout and this paid off as we won the game by one goal, final score being 15-14.
The entire team should be incredibly proud of their performance and what we have achieved, to top the day off we made Vicki cry… with happiness and pride we hope!
Well done girls and here’s to a great day tomorrow too!
Thank you to Caitlyn for joining us today and scoring some fab goals!
Special mention to Scarlett N (GK/GD) for winning player of the tournament!! Well deserved!
