Match Reports 

Maidwell 1 Akeley Wood 6

Akeley were the better side in this, the first match of the season. Although Maidwell did have chances, and indeed scored a good goal through Johnny Beck Brown, the lack of match play was very evident in every area of the pitch. Cassian Ferrari was very strong in goal saving numerous shots.

 

Maidwell 3  Bedford 8

The score line did not fully reflect this match as Maidwell created many goal scoring opportunities. Johnny Beck Brown, with 2 and Hugh Buxton scored the goals but the faster Bedford team tucked away their opportunities and ran out easy winners.

 

Maidwell 1 Swanbourne 1

This match was always going to by settled by a single goal. Unfortunately the goal went to the visitors and a good chance to clock up a victory was lost.

 

Maidwell 0  Wellingborough 5 

For the first quarter, we dominated the game with most of the possession and even had a couple of shots on goal. However, due to sporadic and speedy routs by their forwards, we found ourselves three goals down by half time. Cassian is an excellent goalie and spent a respectable amount of time in the air. Hugo, Arthur and William did their job well in clearing the ball to the sides. Hugh certainly did his bit in trying to fight off attackers and was periodically very animated. William, Toby and George did well up and down the pitch to bolster the defence as well. On a number of occasions, JBB, Tom and Alberto had the ball in the opposition's box, but were thwarted with relative ease. Wellingborough were a skilled side and certainly deserved to win.
