Bath Primary
Schools lost their final match of the season as
they crashed to a 4-0 defeat at the hands of
Bristol. The Bath Chronicle-sponsored side had no
answer to a Bristol team packed full of academy
players and boasting a fearsome
attack.
Trailing 2-0 at the interval, Tim
Kirk's boys showed determination but were undone
by Bristol's power and pace up
front.
Joseph Symonds of Southdown School
went close on a couple of occasions for Bath and
with Jordan Tillson (Bathwick St Mary's)
performing magnificently in the heart of midfield,
Bath threatened to get back in the
game.
But they were left to rue defensive
mistakes which allowed Bristol to double their
advantage before full-time.
Despite
finishing bottom of their league, Bath coach Kirk
was more than satisfied with his side's first ever
season in the representative league.
He
said: "It has been a brilliant season.
"The
standard of football has been a lot higher than
our lads expected and all the teams we played
against have had academy players.
"Apart
from the Bristol game we have only been losing by
the odd goal. We just lacked a goalscorer but
otherwise we have been superb."
Team: Sam Butler, Sam Mount, Dan, Tom, Jamie,
Ernie, Jordan, Bradley,Lewis, Joe, Paris.
