Hawkhurst Tournament - Congratulations to Monarchs U11 Girls for finishing 4th against all BOYS' teams in Sunday's tournament for their age group!

Manager Darren:

'These girls should be so proud of themselves today finishing joint 4th out of 8 boys teams.

Missing out on the semis by 1 goal difference. ♥️

Having the other coaches complimenting the girls was worth every minute today.

The girls grew into this tournament getting stronger and stronger.

The lessons we learnt today about making quicker decisions and moving the ball quicker after our first touch will be so valuable.'

Well done to all involved!
