Football teams at Ross Juniors have seen a quieter week of football than usual, with many teams having breaks due to half term. However, there were still many highlights across a number of the teams.

The men’s teamwon again with a 2-1 tester against Hereford City Sports.

The U8 Junior boys qualified to play in the finals for their age range at Edgar Street, taking place on May 4th, due to their Futsal achievements.

The U8 and U9 boys are both doing brilliantly in their respective futsal league as the winter futsal programme concludes.

The U17 boys beat Bartstree Colts 4-0 on the weekend, and the U14 girls beatGloucester City U14s 7-3.

The U12 girls played U10 girls in a friendly, trying to learn the offside rule in very foggy conditions. The Colts girls , who are pictured on the far left, were delighted to receive their training rain jackets from Dave Taylor who arranged sponsorship through Command Alton.

A spokesperson for Ross Juniors said: “The jackets have been fantastic in the wet weather and really make the girls feel like a team.”See this week’s paper for more stories like this, available in shops and as a Digital Edition now.
