The best of the weekend’s action from the Huntingdonshire junior football scene

KC COUGARS

COUGARS U15s set up a Hunts County Cup final clash against Huntingdon Rowdies following their 3-2 semi-final win over Godmanchester Rovers.

Goals from James Belbin, Sam Hills and Kacey Nicholson were enough to see them through.

But credit must go to man of the match Charlie Lee, who made a stunning save to deny

Goddy the chance of taking the game into extra-time.

HUNTINGDON ROWDIES

ROWDIES U12s hit double figures on their way to an 11-1 victory at Warboys.

Louis Stow, Ethan Parr, Martin Saunders and Edward Martin had their shooting boots on as the U11s defeated St Ives Rangers 4-0.

The U13s went down to a 9-3 defeat at the hands of March Rangers. Connor Lewis and Tom Bartlett had helped Rowdies recover from 2-0 down to level 2-2, but the visitors proved too strong and, by the time Damien Parek scored a third for Rowdies, March were out of sight.

PRIORY PARKSIDE

OLLIE Curlis-Ackrill’s last-gasp leveller earned Priory U12s a 2-2 draw against Brampton.

Adam Dawson got their other goal, while Nathan May and Martin Uy were on target for the Spartans.

It was also honours even for Priory U9F by the same scoreline at Fenstanton,

Richie Ellingham’s brace ensuring they earned a share of the spoils.

Priory U13A overcame difficult conditions to eventually run out comfortable 4-0 winners against resilient Comberton Crusaders. Reece Keating scored twice, Lewis Rook and Jordan Brown chipped with solo efforts.

GODMANCHESTER ROVERS

GODDY U13A boosted their title chance by recorded a narrow 3-2 victory over fellow challengers Teversham Colts.

It wasn’t such as good day for the U12A side who were on the wrong end of a 4-2 scoreline against Bottisham. Owen Bevan’s penalty and own goal was as good as it got for Goddy.

Thomas James, Owen Charge, James Elin were all among the goals for the J team.

LITTLE PAXTON

Yoni Anish found the net no less than seven times for Little Paxton U8s who made it five wins in a row by defeating Warboys Wizards 8-6.

Jamie Peters got the winners’ other goal in a pulsating match, in which Warboys made a real fist of it.

Warboys goals came from Danny Carrigan (3), Ryan Bullard, Liam Baker and Daniel Chivers.

SOMERSHAM

A QUICKFIRE early brace from Matthew Goldring set Somersham Gold U9 to a 3-2 success at Little Paxton.

BRAMPTON SPARTANS
