Meet the Under 11 Team of 2011
The 2011 Under 11 squad had a great year, with two teams competing in both the Summer and Autumn leagues. These leagues were 11 a side Go Games, but with up to 28 players turning out and this age group being so strong, we were able to give most of our players an opportunity to play for both teams. The first division team finished top of both the Summer and Autumn leagues and won the Hawkfield blitz after the Summer League. The fourth division team finished mid table, but got stronger and more successful as the year went on.
The Under 11 Management this year was Andy Sherlock, Bobby Foran and Oliver O’Kelly. For us it was a great year, the lads are a great group to work with and we were delighted with the progression of the boys throughout the year. We could see real improvement across all of the players, the whole group are really competitive. The lads are also very committed with over 20 at training throughout, even in the pouring rain over the last few weeks.
The highlight of the year was the trip to the beach to play the final round of our internal league. It’s worth checking out the pictures. If these lads don’t make senior footballers, there’s definitely some Olympic swimmers amongst them.
