ACADEMY KEEP ON PROGRESSING

Boreham Woods Academy completed three wins in two days, Reserves, Under 19s and Under 18s all won in the space of 24 hours.

A very young and inexperienced reserve side completed a dramatic last minute 3-2 win against a much older Tring Athletic side on Tuesday. Wednesday day saw the under 19s claim 3 points in a 6-1 victory against AFC Sudbury, which leaves them needing 4 points from two games to claim the National League title. Wednesday evening was the Under 18s turn to complete a hat trick of victories for the academy as 3 debuts were handed out, in a 6-0 victory again against Tring Athletic.

The reserves with six first years in the starting eleven took the game to Tring and even after going behind twice saw goals from Cheyce Grant, Daniel Crease and Yves Kpemow give them all three points on the night.

The U19s continued there fine form again after going a goal behind against AFC Sudbury saw them score six goals without response to give them a deserved and comfortable victory. Goals by Bradley Sach (3) Frank Keita, Sorba Thomas and substitute Yves Kpemow completed the rout.

The U18s continued the winning theme with an impressive six goals  against a Tring side only two places behind them in the league. Goals by Daniel Crease (2), Cheyce Grant (2) Robert Pinto and Mihai Nitu saw the squad of all first years complete the hat trick of wins for the academy.

Head Coach Cameron Mawer commented after “We had five missing from the squad going into a busy period, which shows the strength the academy has right now. So many boys are getting opportunities and taking them and that`s credit to the pathway created at the football club”

He added ” Next year is looking exciting as our trials and recruit are going well, if any youngsters are hungry and have the qualities we look for in a player, there isn’t any where better to learn your trade especially with the exciting new astro build ready to use next season”
