U16 Boys County Cup Round 1 vs Neal Wade

On a grey Monday afternoon, the U15’s had a game in the u16 county cup against Neal Wade Academy. We had a good start to the game and for the first 20 minutes there was no goals just some good football from our players. Around 25 minutes in Will managed to find Joe and Joe slots it top right corner. Around 5 minutes later Will again found Joe and he was calm and composed and slotted it in bottem right corner. That meant we finished the first half at 2-0

At the start of the second half it was a scrappy game, with the ball being booted up a lot but Hinchingbrooke had more possession. Around 20 minutes into the second half Neal Wade Academy managed to score a nice header from a corner. It was some poor marking from Hinchingbrooke but we didn’t let that ruin our game. The next 15 minutes was a battle to not concede but we fought hard and with 5 minutes left Isaac found the ball on the edge of the box and smashed it bottom right to seal the game at 3-1. Overall it was a good team performance playing a year up and we managed to battle hard and work for the fantastic win.

MOTM Joe: 2 goals

U13 Girls Sisters n Sport Round 1 vs Culford School

Hinchingbrooke School U13 Girls put in a spirited performance in the opening round of the Sisters n Sport Shield but ultimately fell 4–2 to a strong Culford side.

 

Culford started brightly, applying early pressure and capitalising on two well-worked attacking moves to take a 2–0 lead. Despite the tough opening spell, Hinchingbrooke regrouped impressively. Their determination shone through as Lucy fired home a composed finish to reduce the deficit, before adding a second with another clinical strike. Her brace brought the score to 2–2 at half time, a deserved reward for the team’s fightback and resilience.

The second half remained competitive, with both sides pushing for control. Hinchingbrooke continued to work tirelessly, but Culford managed to convert two further chances to secure the 4–2 victory.

There were plenty of positives for Hinchingbrooke to take from the match. Ettie was outstanding throughout, showing composure, intelligence, and relentless energy—earning her one of the coaches’ Star Player awards. Lucy, with her two-goal performance and tireless work rate, deservedly shared the accolade.

Culford selected Emily as the Opposition Star Player.

Although the result didn’t fall their way, Hinchingbrooke can be proud of their impressive comeback and the quality they showed throughout the match.
