U15 Boys ESFA Cup Round 1 vs Lincroft Academy 

On a windy Monday afternoon, the U15’s travelled to Lincroft academy for the first round of the FA cup. We had a rough start and conceded a goal in the first 5 minutes, but Roberts quickly acted on it by scoring a nice volley minutes after. Around 15 minutes later we had some poor defending and conceded 2 goals in the space of 2 minutes. Shortly followed but another 5 minutes later. This put the score at 4-1 to Lincroft Academy at half time.

At the start of the second half it didn’t take long for Sinclair to score a flick on header from a beautiful chip from Webb. Off the kickoff Lincroft academy passed the ball to their goalkeeper and sinclair managed to steal the ball and finish it into the back if the net. 1 minute later Sinclair was through on goal by a gorgeous ball over the top from Kimber. Sinclair took his chance and buried it bottom corner. This level the game to 4-4, Sinclair had scored a hat-trick in 3 whole minutes!!! We dominated the next 20 minutes but struggles to put the ball in the back of the net but one man stepped up to score to make it 5-4 and it had to be Sinclair! His fourth goal came from a superb low cross from Roberts and Sinclair managed to tuck the ball in past the keeper!!! We seed the last 5 minutes out to go on to win the game 5-4. This was an outstanding performance from the team to score back 4 goals in the second half for an amazing comeback.

MOTM Sinclair, 4 goals

U14 Girls ESFA Cup Round 1 vs St Mary's 

We delivered a dominant performance in our 5-0 win, Bailey starting off with a thunderous strike, then Clara putting on a sensational display by scoring 4 goals and earning the Opposition Player of the Match. Our control was on point that our Goalkeeper only touched the ball once! Despite having no subs, every player gave 100%, showing real determination and team spirit. Darcy was outstanding throughout and deservedly received the Coaches Player of the Match for her effort and composure. Although our captain arrived late, she made a positive impact by encouraging the team throughout. A fantastic all-round performance full of energy, teamwork, and positivity.

U18 Boys First XI CDC Fixture vs Cambourne 

On a brisk autumn afternoon the lads from Hinchingbrooke took on the mighty Cambourne in our first game of the season.
Many debuts for the club including our own Lopez, Marsh, Jimoh, Kashif, Turner, Brace, and Ganno. The game started tough with the ball ping-ponging up and down the pitch with both teams having to deal with the tough gailforce winds. We broke through with a sublime strike from Smith midway through the half. The boys, though 1-0 up, struggled to get a foothold on the game as there were many tactical fouls from the Cambourne midfield. Just before the end of the half however, Cambourne no. 10 missed an open goal as Brace decided to give him an opportunity from the kindness of his heart. As the second half got underway the boys started quickly as a well-worked dribble from Smith unlocked an opportunity for him to put it away which he did well. 5 minutes later, Lopez produced a carbon copy of the second goal however finishing with his weak foot instead. Another 5 minutes passed where Lopez scored an excellent goal which somehow didnt cross the line (according to the lino). Masvi then scored the last goal with a calm finish from a beautiful ball through from Marsh. Seeing the game out, the boys played an unbelievable offside trap and Cambourne just couldnt get through. Brace with wonderful save at the death, the boys ended the game 4-0 with 2 goals from Smith and a goal each from Lopez and Masvi. The midfield 3 being a force to be reckoned with (SmithxLopezxMasvi) and the defense being solid, the boys have a shout for the league title this season.

Year 9 HBK Pink team

We had an incredible 2 matches, although we didn’t win any, we conceded only one goal throughout—thanks to our solid teamwork and determination. Simone and Jess, who were both new to football, absolutely smashed it on the pitch, showing real skill and growing confidence. Amelia was brilliant in goal, making some crucial saves to keep us safe, and working fantastically with Mia, who was our defending superstar. One of the best parts of the day was the great sportsmanship all around—we even made friends with the opposition and got a team photo together at the end. Huge shoutout to Liv for refereeing, what a legend!
