A great weekend for all the age groups who all won their games and all produced performances that deserved the results they got. This week is the final week of training plus the last fixtures for 2015 on Saturday 19th December before all staff and players get a well deserved two week Christmas break.
South Gloucester U13s 1 - 3 Hereford U13s
The U13s have produced some excellent performances recently but have struggled to get positive results from the games. It wasn't going to be too long before these excellent performances were rewarded with the result all the players were working hard for. Goals from Sam Braybrook, Harry Ratcliffe and Mason Godsall saw them beat South Gloucester 3-1 in difficult, windy and wet conditions but played on a 4G pitch which allowed the Hereford boys to show what a great footballing team they are.
Hereford U14s 3 - 0 Newport County U14s
The U14s hosted Newport County at Belmont Abbey. Newport played an excellent possession game but couldn't get past the well organised, excellent defence of Hereford FC . The first hour was a really tight, tense but entertaining game with no goals scored but with plenty of end to end action with both goalkeepers forced to keep their teams in the game. The final 20 minutes was all about Hereford who switched to an 'all out attack' mentality and deservedly scored 3 late goals . Goals coming from Declan Beddoes (2) and Sam Williams. A great win for the U14s who continue to improve on their great season so far.
Both teams were really up for this game with the rivalry there is between Hereford U15s and Newport U15s. The Hereford boys were victorious and came away with a well deserved 2-1 win. As expected, it was a very competitive game which saw Newport take an early lead. Hereford then took control of the game and could of scored a few more goals. Hereford scored the equaliser just before half time and then grabbed their second 15 minutes into the second half with the goals from Liam Bishop and Joe Mellars.
Another excellent performance from the whole U15 squad who worked hard and showed a great desire and determination to win the game in difficult conditions. They continue they fantastic form in the Junior Premier League, winning 8 out of 10 competitive league games so far.
Forest Green Rovers U16s 0 - 2 Hereford U16s
The U16s continue their recent winning form with an important 2-0 win away at FGR. This was their final fixture in the JPL Cup competition which saw them overtake FGR in the Cup league table. The U16s dominated the game in difficult conditions but couldn't find the net until the final 20 minutes when Greg Preece and trialist Elliot Smith grabbed two late goals to seal the well deserved win and the 3 points. The U16s are turning into a very strong squad with plenty of competition for places and with players already playing in the U18s team too.
