Let's hope his managerial skills are better than his golf  - which is up and down, side to side and inconsistent !

TRAINING INFORMATION

The day for our weekly outdoor training sessions is now on a THURSDAY 6:00 - 7:00pm next to the Bluebirds Pavilion on Cholsey Recreation Ground until it gets too dark.
Training is now CONFIRMED: weekly from after half-term until early March also on a THURSDAY from 7:00 -8:00pm under floodlights on Cholsey Rec before you go over the concrete bridge.

FIXTURES
Teams will play other teams in their division home and away on a traditional league basis.
Postponed games will be rescheduled for weekends where no game is scheduled subject to OMYFL Rules being followed. The Oxfordshire Cup and also the Berks & Bucks Cup will
affect teams in this age group so some games will need to be moved on a round by round basis.
ALSO, we are hoping to run an Inter-League competition with Witney & District Youth
League. This will depend on fixture congestion in the New Year.

Summary of 2017/18 Season as U14s

After our promotion last season back up to the “C” League, expectations were high. Sadly though, due to a number of issues, we lost our first 8 league games. As is usual in football in these cases, an emergency board meeting was called, resulting, as is usual in these cases, a unanimous “vote of confidence” in the manager. And we all knew what that meant.
Once into 2018, however, things began to turn around. The squad clearly didn’t want their beloved and aged manager (well past his sell-by-date) to get the “push” and they started to play “as a team”, displaying great enthusiasm, dogged determination and a fair amount of skill too. The consequences were: in the League we won 2, drew 2 & lost 2.
With luck, and we didn’t have any – sitters went-a-begging, bobbling balls, the woodwork, opposition keepers having a blinder, you name it, we missed it – we could easily have had another 15 goals and 9 more points. Even though we had improved, we still ended up second from bottom in the League and our fate now rests with the League Secretary as to which division we will be playing in come September. We hope to stay in the “C” League as we have recruited 4, possibly 5, skilful players from a Berkshire club that has folded.
The highlight of the year though, was undoubtedly beating Goring Robins 3-2 in our Cup Quarter-Final match, and that’s after they beat us 8-1 in our first game of the season back in September. It had everything – last ditch tackles, superb goals, hitting the woodwork, brilliant saves – you name it, it had it ! Despite the same level of effort and commitment in our S-F against Cumnor, we were beaten by the better team on the day 3-1.
Some good news is that Julian Walley at WINTERBROOK Estate Agents, who have sponsored our kit for the past 2 seasons, has generously agreed to do so for another 2 years – our grateful thanks to him.
I can’t thank the team enough for their faith in me and must also mention what a great group of supportive parents I have – THANK YOU ALL – you make an old man very happy.

Summary of 2016/17 Season as U13s

With the season split into two mini ones, we almost gained promotion last December, finishing 3rd in the D League. However, this year saw us finish second and so we finally move up to the C League come next September – nothing less than the boys deserve for all their outstanding efforts both individually and as a team - scoring 56 goals and conceding just 13 in 7 matches. We are all very much looking forward to the challenge of facing tougher opposition next season.

​SUMMER 2016 TOURNAMENT PHOTOS
Sam's mum is a Professional Photographer - I think you can tell by the quality of her "snaps" below at some of the 2016 Summer Tournaments we entered. Compared to our "League" season, we did brilliantly - entering TWO teams at all Tournaments (Marston / Ours / Crowmarsh / Didcot Town), with both teams reaching the Plate Semi-Finals at 3 of them.
She was going to be our "OFFICIAL PHOTOGRAPHER" of the team but sadly Sam is not rejoining for the 16/17 season.

If any parents would like a copy of any of the photos, let Dave know.

Summary of the 2015/16 Season

​Well, what can I say about this year . . . glad it’s over ! In the first half of the season in the “B” league, although we struggled a bit, we weren’t outplayed by any team, but ended up being relegated after winning just the one game. Sadly for us, in the “C” league in the New Year, things went from bad to worse . . . lost all 7 games . . . relegated again.
However, just looking at the stats, gives you a very distorted view of exactly how well the team played. I lost count of the number of times we hit the woodwork, the number of superb saves opposition keepers made, the number of efforts just over the bar or wide of the post and . . . the number of missed open goals. It just wasn’t our year !
Despite the obvious disappointment, every one of the squad played in the true Bluebirds' tradition . . . always giving 100% and NEVER . . . EVER . . . giving up. They should be proud of themselves . . . as their manager, I certainly am.

Summary of the 2014-15 Season

The team exceeded all my expectations before Christmas, winning 6 of their 7 League matches to top the Table and gain promotion to the "B" League in the New Year.
Following losing the first 2 League games in the “B” League, we won the next three to make ourselves safe from going back down to the "C" League after just one campaign - whatever happened in the final 2 games.
As it turned out, we lost both - Didcot Casuals were too strong for us on the day and the last game, against Chalgove Cavaliers was unbelievable  with the final result 5-7 after being 0-4 down at half-time.
The team’s sportsmanship is brilliant, never questioning decisions - they are a credit to themselves, the team and the Club.
Although we shall be losing a few players we are very much looking forward to next season already.
