A Hard Day At The Office

Oliver recently joined the village football team. They started an under 15's team which played it's first league match today. As a team they are new, and a lot of them are new to competitive football so there is lot to learn about how the play the game tactically as well as physically.

As a small team they only managed to field 11 players, so they all had to play the full game with no substitutions available, unlike their well drilled opposition who could rotate players as they wanted and rest in the warm late summer morning.

They played hard with some really good football at times but it wasn't the result they had hoped for. 

Rome wasn't built in a day. They will get there.
