U10s girls Champions again
Crosspool JFC Girls Under 10s secured the A division championship today for the third season in succession, with a 6-0 away defeat of Dronfield Town A.
Even if second place Worksop Girls win all their remaining six fixtures and Crosspool lose all theirs, they can only draw level on points, and Crosspool have the better goal difference by 56 goals - while it's not technically mathematical, it's good enough for us. Four goals from team captain Sam Tierney, and one each from top scoring striker India Thompson-Carr and Emmily Antcliffe made up the result, with Crosspool's player of the match performance coming from Ellie Bird on the wing. Dronfield put up a good fight, and were unlucky to go behind after 10 minutes, to a penalty for handball in the area. Crosspool, though, were not to be denied a win today, even though they were made to work for it.
This team's record is very impressive - Under 9 double winners for two years in succession, and now league champions for the third year. So far this season the girls' league record stands at: played 13, won 13, scored 77, conceded 8. They are also still in the cup this season, and this record is just the most recent part of an unbeaten run in full length competitive matches that stretches back nearly two full seasons. The team's last defeat was at the hands of Under 9 cup and league runners up Wickersley Youth, who beat the Crosspool girls 3-1 on 4th February 2006. In fact the team's last competitive draw was also against Wickersley, on 25th March 2006.
During the course of this winning run, the team have lost two players already to the Centre of Excellence (Eleanor Goodwin and Megan Crehan), and their current captain Sam Tierney is also now being trialled for the CoE team. It may well be, therefore, that the remaining Crosspool girls will have to work harder if they want to extend their golden spell any further.
