School Team Wins North Suffolk Football Tournament

Yesterday SRH tok 2 teams to the annual tournament at Stradbroke High School.
There were a record 27 teams taking part this year - divided into 5 groups.
The SRH A team won all of their group games scoring 10 goals and conceding none.

Our young B team played with great skill but struggled to score against older opposition - losing 1-0 on 3 occasions and winning their last game 1-0.

Action shots from our B team matches.






Our A Team (with only 1 member of last years' County Champions) progressed to a tough looking quarter-final against Debenham. However, Framlingham managed to contain their very talented captain and score 2 excellent goals to win a high quality match 2-0.

In the semi-final Framlingam were playing with huge self confidence and cruised into a 2-0 lead against Wortham. There was a worrying last few minutes when Framlingham conceded a penalty (the only goal against all day) but managed to hold on for a 2-1 win.


In the final, Framlingham played against Gislingham (from near Beccles) and again scored 2-0 good goals and could have scored many more. The team controlled possession and territory to emerge as well deserved champions. 

Framlingham will now get the chance to defend their County title in January.
