Colts C,
D & E IX
The whole season, for the
Colts C and D squad was
affected by illness and injury
to a succession of players.
The result of these medical interventions
was an uncertainty in team selection (often
continuing until beyond break time on the
morning of the match).
Virtually every match day
the boys accepted, usually
with good humour, that
they might be playing in
either C or D fixtures (if
on games) and that
this might involve
a late change from
home match to away (or
vice versa
). Promotion and
demotion between teams
was not generally dictated
by performance, or form,
but by availability.The result
was that most members of the
squad represented both C and D
(and even, on one occasion, E)
teams during the term.
Whilst all this change was
probably not good for continuity, it did
provide lots of opportunities for boys to
shine in their own ways. Despite losing every
game, the D team fought hard and never
gave up. The C team were
more effective, playing in a
number of close contests
and recording a couple
of good victories against
Lambrook and Elstree.
Those who ran hard with
the ball, and were difficult to stop,
were led by
Koko Momodu
,
David Stirling
and
MarcusWigwe-Chizundu
.Those who
exhibited pace with the ball and mazy running
included
Tom Eadie
,
DoronAkinyanju
,
Louis
Lord
and
Freddie Dooley
.The tough tackles
came from
Savva Grevtsev, Ned Sekula,
Aidan Saunders
and
Gunnar Saastad
.
There were several boys who showed real
improvement, led by
EdwardWhitbread
,
Cenk Oguz
and
Alex Chandler
. Last, but
certainly not least, the leadership, organisation
and ability to do all of the above shown by
David Jin Li should be commended.
The team had a small, hardy, and dedicated
team of parental supporters who followed
them everywhere (and often changed venue
at short notice) – their encouragement,
patience and support were much appreciated.
