Our under-16 and under-21 sides enjoyed a successful weekend by booking their places in the FA Youth Cup final and FA Academy Cup semi-final respectively.
Our under-16s made it through to the final on Saturday after defeating Oxford United 3-0 on the road.
The heavy wind made it a scrappy affair - but we came out on top thanks to a brace from Rachel Harle and a late strike by Lexi Lloyd-Smith.
We will now face Chelsea in the final on Saturday, April 27. Venue to be confirmed.
The following day our under-21s sealed their place in the semi-final of the FA Academy Cup with a 2-0 home win over Chelsea.
Mel Filis and Ruby Grant scored the game’s only goals, setting up a semi-final clash with FA East Region Academy (Ipswich Town) on Sunday, March 24. The game will take place at Hertfordshire University.
We’re wishing the best of luck to both teams!
