** PRESENTATION EVENING 2008 **

This years Presentation Evening was held at Keighleys Victoria Hall. Everybody seemed to enjoy themselves as all players were presented with their club trophy and special award trophies for Player of the Year, Most improved and Players Player.
We held an auction where items signed by Jack Charlton and a book called 'Boys of '72' about the Leeds team of 1972 that won the FA cup were generously snapped up by members. The book was signed by 10 players including Eddie Gray, Peter Lorimer and Allan Clarke and went for almost £100.

Sutton Fun Day
Sutton Juniors were present at Sutton Fun Day. They took part in the parade through the village and were cheered throughout. The under 11's took the chance to parade their recent tropies won in Holland.

On the field there was the popular penalty shootout and beat the goalie where quite a few people were successful and took home the prize of a football. John was tested to the full by the shootouts and seemed to enjoy keeping out shots from his old team-mates.
I will get some more photos on soon, please send us any you think we would like to see.

DADS Tournament 2008

Well, another great Dads tournament has taken place and was eventually won by a familiar, if not so pretty, face. Once again, it was Andy Steel (2006 winner) and his under 7's team that came out worthy winners.
The 5 teams were evenly matched again this year and provided the usual entertainment of comedy errors, some good skills and some painfull fouls (as I found out).

With better weather this year all the teams started out full of energy and raring to go. The first two matches both produced goalless draws as most of the dads re-discovered the art of running again (some only do this once a year). The teams realised that they needed to get some goals if they were to show the kids how to play so once the teams had got their legs moving a little faster the goals started to go in.
By the time the bacon & sausage sarnis (thanks to Alan, Aimee and Judith) had just about gone, and after much sweat and fighting through pain barriers, we had our semi finalists.
Now it was becoming really hard work for the oldies to keep going but somehow they just about managed it, one team having to win by the dreaded sudden death penalties, we had our two finalist, the U6's & U7's.
After a short rest both teams entertained the fans with a keenly fought out final which was eventually won by the slightly more energetic Under 7's........WELL DONE GUYS.

Also a mention to...
James Pepper - Goal of the tournament
and
Chris Hall (that's me) - Player of the tournament

Thanks again to Alan, Aimee & Judith for the barbecue that kept us all going and to the two refs who struggled to keep the dads under control.

Let's see you all there again next year for more of the same.
