FootballXL Wakefield Season 6 - Week 9

Week 9 of season 6 and another dry evening up at Frickley.

Blues V Blacks was our early 7pm game last night. An early goal saw Blues go in front and a couple more goals saw them keep the lead at half time, a hard fought second half however Blacks weren’t able to keep Blues at bay with Blues taking the 4 - 1 win.

Both the later games kicked off at their usual times of 8pm and saw two more great games. In the Whites V Greens, both halves were tough battles with Whites sealing the victory 6 - 2. On the adjacent pitch the game literally went down to the last kick of the game; Yellows were able to keep Reds at 0 - 0 right to the last second when Reds were able to score on the final whistle seeing Reds take the 0 - 1 win.

Dan Roughley still leads the way topping the scoring charts with 15 goals with Jack Dyas joining Matty Williamson in joint second place on 9 with Phil and Max hot on their heels with 8 and 7 goals respectively.

Ash Ballance is joined in the top spot on the individual table by Ben Wood and Jordan Green all amassing 39 points in 9 weeks.

FootballXL Sunderland - Week 4

A much calmer week than last saw a chillier and windy evening at Downhill. Thankfully better shooting had a lot less balls over the fences (thanks everyone)

Less balls over the fences meant we had a ton of goals as the Black team tried to catch Blue at top of the table, while the Whites await the opening of a transfer window.

Tight affair that came down to finished chances in the Red v Blue as Blue stretch their lead.

Evening game saw Yellow stage a fightback after a slow start and emerge victorious.

Top losers for the week:
Richie Adams - 5.1kg
Kenny Thurgood - 3.4kg
Stuart Jobling - 2.9kg

Fantastic effort everyone, a good vibe this week.

FootballXL Sunderland Leisure United Downhill Football and Gym Season 1 Week 3

Our third week of the season arrived on a thankfully slightly cooler evening.

Two early games started with early front runners the Greens coming unstuck against a ruthless Black team performance ending in a 5-0 scoreline

The second pitch saw a tight game which was 4-3 eventually decided only by the borrow rules between Red and Yellow

Lastly, the Super Sunday blockbuster between White v Blue drew a larger than usual crowd and Blues ran away with it 5-1 to top the table for the end of the week
