U8 Blitz v Ballinascreen, Sunday 7th March
On Sunday 7th March Rossa U8’s hosted a blitz against Ballinascreen at Meadowbank Arena. There was an excellent turnout from both clubs who competed on 3 pitches for an hour. The standard of football on display was excellent as was the spirit in which the games were played. This was a stern challenge for our U8’s against strong Ballinascreen opposition.
All the Rossa teams put on very good displays, the most satisfying part of which was how well our players competed for the ball. All the players worked really hard for each other and there were many good passages of play. It was pleasing to see how much our players are improving as they are becoming more used to playing against other clubs. As well as good teamwork there were good individual performances with players making some great blocks and taking fine scores. As expected, Ballinascreen proved very strong opposition and were a very good test with all the games closely contested. Many thanks to them for coming. Everyone agreed it was great fun and we’ll be training hard for the next one! Remember to keep practising at home!
