Formby Junior Sports Club Frank's Report 19th September 2017
Two hundred and seventy-six children attended Inter Club football at Formby Junior Sports Club last Saturday. This was the biggest attendance for two years and included one hundred and ten girls. There were many new children, in nearly all age groups, “giving football a go” at FJSC for the first time. All these children did well and we hope to see them all back again next Saturday.
It was also a very busy weekend for FJSC’s Representative teams. Twenty-five teams out of twenty- nine were in action for the club in local leagues.
Fifteen boys’ teams proudly wore the black and white striped shirts of FJSC playing mainly in the Craven Minor League but also in the Bootle, Litherland and Netherton Junior Football League for the first time for many years.
All twelve girls’ teams were also in action playing in their red and white striped shirts in the Hightown Girls’ League, the West Lancashire Girls’ League and the newly formed Liverpool Under 15 Girls’ League.
INTER CLUB FOOTBALL
The children in the Reception and Year One boys’ group got off to a good start. Next Saturday each group will also have coaching for half the session as well as a friendly match.
The Year Two and Year Three boys played as one division but next Saturday will be divided into two sections. The Year Two’s will be just one group. The Year Three boys will be divided into four evenly balanced teams.
The Year Four, Years Five/Six and the boys in Year Seven/ Eight will be divided into provisional Inter Club teams with Inter Club names next week. Adjustments will be made if necessary to level out the ability of each team.

FJSC Under 13 United drew 1-1 with Dynamo Rangers Under 14’s. The match was played at a fast pace and there were chances for both teams. United trailed 1 nil at half time but a very good second half performance saw United draw level when a very accurate Anna Klaassen corner kick was headed home by Bella Plows. It was a great goal.
