A beautiful morning away at Ruddington with the sun shining, great to be back out on the pitch. We started strongly, going 1–0 up inside the first 10 minutes and playing some really good football, especially with the long ball over the top. Ruddington responded to make it 2–1, but Bosworth showed great character to pull it back to 2–2. A tough refereeing decision just before half-time saw us go in 3–2 down, but the lads kept battling. In the second half, playing downhill, we

AFC Market Bosworth Bullets made the trip to face Haunchwood Hammers in a tightly contested away fixture that proved to be a hard-fought battle from start to finish.

Fresh from reaching the county cup final last week, it was a return to league action for the Belles. A strong squad of 16 for the game with Eliza making her return from injury! Zoe started at right back, as Amie slotted in at left back. Ava H moved forward to left wing and on the opposite side Iris also started. With the swirling wind and pitch surface, it was clear that the football on show probably wasn't going to be fast flowing. That said the Belles started strong, as

Sonics met a team who in the first half had many players behind every ball and were that bit quicker to the ball. We conceded and in a way it was the kick to spur the Sonics on. James reacted shortly after and buried a ball into the back of the net and after a very well delivered corner into the box by Louie , Jenson pounced to score for the Sonics. In the first half David made a super save to help keep us in the game and his goal kicks to the sides were brilliant to see!

Midway through the first half AFC had a corner cleared, which allowed Weddington to launch a quick counter-attack

After a lengthy six week lay off due to bad weather, cup rearranged fixtures and teams folding the Roses finally had a Sunday morning fixture. The Roses were without Esme , Lauren and Evie for the match and usually after a period without games the Roses struggle but in this match they started well, without instruction to, the team passed the ball well and looked dangerous in attack. Sophie made a good run forward with the ball and just as she did later in the game played a

Eventually the boys and Freya found their rhythm and there was some lovely left hand side play between George , Leighton , Ben and Tom .

David made some solid saves in the game and Louie , Freya , Leighton and Ben in defence were working as a defensive line to close down the play. The opposition had a s

The Blazers matched up against Cottage Farm Milan in a game that was very much a game of two halves. The Blazers in the first half flew forward, making the Milan defence dizzy with passing and dribbling that would not be out of place from the Brazil team! In the second half they had to show more grit than the local gritters in January. Working together as a team to slow down attacks and defend their own box to stop incoming shots. View from the dugout: I thought that was a ve

The Roses faced Anstey Nomads for the first time in league competition, only previously playing against one another in an end of season tournament.

A good warm up followed with a detailed team talk and an honest conversation about the effort required, the Roses had a full squad to choose from. It was a strong start from the Roses with Anstey testing a few balls through but
