For the fifth
year running Scouts from 1st Adderbury won the Banbury District’s Indoor
Football Competition. This
took place at Spiceball Park on Sunday February 25th. And in a show of
just how good the footballing talent is at 1st Adderbury, whilst the Troops
“A” team took the winners trophy 1st Adderbury’s “B” team took second
place in the competition. The
fight between the Troop’s top two was so intense only goal difference
separated the teams in the end.
Eight teams from
Troops across North Oxfordshire battled in what was a fast and furious
afternoon’s football. 1st Adderbury are
proud to have been winners of the past four years indoor competitions, and the
past five years outdoor competitions.
Upon making the winners presentation, event organiser Phil Grant even
commented that the trophy had spent so much time in Adderbury in recent years it
now thought of the village as home! 1st Adderbury’s
“A” and “B” teams both remained unbeaten all afternoon.
Assistant Scout
Leader James Pope said, “I’m very proud of this achievement.
Each year the competition becomes harder to win as everybody knows its
Adderbury they have to beat. “The lads had
organised their own training sessions and took in all the advice about the
specific skills required for indoor football, space analysis and tactical
movement. “Winning a competition like this for a couple of years could be down to luck, but to win it five years on the trot shows that our Scouts really are in a class of their own.”
