Bath win Cotswold Title

 

Bath were crowned champions on Saturday as they finished first and third in the annual Cotswold league 6-a-side tournament in Swenson.

 

Last year’s runners up and this year’s national finalists, Bath were considered to be the favourites for the title.  The A team eventually clinched the title after beating Swindon 2-1 in the final game and the B team was denied the runner’s up spot after being held to a 1-1 draw in their final game also against Swindon.

 

More honours were presented to Bath when young midfielder Bradley Norris ( Oldfield Park ) was awarded with the Most Valuable Player of the tournament trophy.

 

Coach Tim Kirk, ?The schools and clubs of Bath are very fortunate to have such a determined and talented group of footballers represent them.  They have impressed all who have watched them this year and there is still more to come.  We will wind down now and give the boys a well earned rest before preparing in earnest for the national final in June.  Just like Chelsea , we’re going for the treble now! ?

Bath V West Wiltshire  2-0                   Oswin, Norris

Bath got their campaign off to an extraordinary start when after just two minutes a powerful goal kick from the Wiltshire keeper was headed straight back into his goal by Will Oswin (Newbridge) from 20 yards.  Bath continued to push forward and it was no surprise when Bradley Norris (Oldfield Park) added a second from a corner.  The score could have been higher but for some narrow misses from Grappy up front and Norris in midfield.

 

Bath V Vale of White Horse     2-0                   Rowlands, Norris

Bath once again began the game in a determined fashion and immediately pressured the Vale defence.  A good passing move resulted in Jack Rowlands tucking the ball away neatly past the stranded keeper.  Bath then sealed the game with a second goal for Bradley Norris.  In both periods, Rowlands and Smithies maintained their efforts in defence and limited the Vale to few chances.

 

Bath V Gloucester                    3-1                   Norris, Grappy, Oswin

In a jubilant mood already, Bath were stunned to find themselves one-nil down after 30 seconds.
