League Champions 21/22

Today was the final league game of the 21/22 season and whilst the game didn't go our way with a 3-0 defeat, today was all about celebrating the teams success this season and on being crowned league champions. I have now been coaching since Brandon was Under 6 nd this is by far his and my biggest achievement and has been a long time coming.

I think the boys had pretty much switched off for todays game (hence the defeat) and were just thinking about getting their hands on the shield and medals. Brandon had a stinker of a game and gave away a penalty which gave them their second goal. So for a brief moment after the game there was a few sad faces as they really don't take losing very well, but then when the champagne was flowing and the medals were presented, it was all smiles.

Hashtag U13s with the League shield. No one really looking at the camera as they are about to get sprayed with champagne. 

Brandon receiving his league champions medal. Something to treasure. I am so please for him as he really found his passion for football again this season.

 

And this is what it was all for, the league shield.

Hashtag name forever engrained on the shield.

That's my boy. Proud Dad day.

He hasn't always liked having Dad as coach, but finally our hard work has paid off.

The team coaches, Paul, Nick and Me.

To celebrate one of the parents bought me this nice glass with the team picture and the wording "Hashtag U13's Champions" with a bottle of Corona. So thoughtful.
