Waverton Jets 3 - 7 Malpas
A tough game in very cold conditions against a well organised Malpas team.
Having taken the lead through Jakob (1) the game was end to end with Malpas going ahead at 1-2 and 2-3. Goals from Jacob (1) and Frank (1) kept us in the match and we went into the final 10 minutes 3-4 down. As we tried to attack, moving Jakob up top, we were caught by Malpas on the break as their outstanding striker took his tally to 5 goals.
The lads kept going and our passing improved in the final quarter with some neat play between Toby and Jacob. A great save from Jakob's fine run and a goal line clearance meant that we can be a little disappointed at the score line.
Malpas showed some good organisation and their passing and movement was impressive.
Well done to our lads.

MATCH REPORT - WED 10 DEC
It was great to see all our lads really keen and very excited to be playing under the floodlights against a strong Blacon side.
In the first game we took a little while to settle and understand our positions but as we grew into the game we scored a great goal from Lewis. Towards the end of the first match we began to understand our positions a bit more and some of our defending and goalkeeping was great.
Going into the second match we showed much more confidence and kept Blacon at bay for long periods. Our play was much better and highlights were Lewis' overall commitment to tackle, chase and carry the ball. Also Bailey was very unlucky not score at least a couple from his volley, his great run and his free kick. Special mention to Max who also really understood his positional play and the need to attack and be confident about getting the ball.
Well done to all the boys on cold and windy night!

MATCH REPORTS - SAT 29 NOV
Tough fixtures this weekend resulted in:
Game 1:
Waverton Jets 7 - 9 Ellesmere Port Rangers
A fantastic game in which we were ahead for long periods. According to Coach Col we just lost our way in the final quarter but against high quality opposition, who drew 3-3 recently with Newton A, this was a really great effort by all our lads. Highlight was some excellent goalkeeping from Jack and the usual goal haul from Frank (lots).
Game 2:
Waverton Jets 6 - 6 Ellesmere Port Rangers
A wonderful game for the neutral saw us go ahead and then pegged back to 5-2 down. A brilliant last quarter fight back from all our boys, saw us go up 6-5 with a minute to play only to concede a bullet shot right on whistle. Highlight was a 'beach ball moment' which set up Jakob's forth (of 5) plus Sion's good finish (1).
Saughall Colts 6 - 0 Waverton Rockets
A much improved Saughall outfit were on good form against us. Coach Steve commented on some really strong individual play including great runs and skills but that Saughall's overall team play led by two excellent midfielders was a little too much to cope with. But a great effort to keep going and well done to all the lads.
