Loddon Grasshoppers U13 were winners at the Soccer on the Sands tournament at Great Yarmouth.

After winning their first round match, they played a nail biting quarter-final which they won after extra time and penalties.

The semi-final also went to extra time and penalties. Adam was absolutely brilliant in goal, saving three penalties, and Loddon deservedly reached the final.

All the team were on fire and a great front team of Ryan and Craig, complemented by the midfield players James and Jack and a formidable defence of Robert, Lewis and Freddie played like true warriors and won the game 2-1.

Caretaker manager Jane Kent said all the Loddon players gave 100pc and were a pleasure to be with.

These great boys are looking for a manager next season when they will be U14s.
