U12s East League Edinburgh Dec 5th

Well done to the parents and players who ventured out over Soutra after hearing the carnage the roads were in yesterday with the heavy snow fall and thank you for supporting us in the cold.

Kelso Kings drew against the strong Watsonian Wolves team 2 - 2. The second goal was only let in as players were in unfamiliar positions due to subs being subbed in quickly to prevent them being on the side line for any length of time; they would have turned into ice blocks otherwise.
They won 3-0 against Gullane even after all the interruptions of changing pitches due to the ice and putting coloured bibs on as the opposition were in the same colour. We played an attaching 7v7 game with the defence playing up, this made the game look crowded, however, it kept the players warm.

The Kelso Cougars
They worked well together as a team and have great awareness on where their team players are on the pitch. 2-1 win against Inverleith Geckos. 3-0 win v Eskvale B

Kelso Comets
Won 4-1 v Inverleith Chameleons and 3-0 win v Fidra Tigers. The team defended well and had good attacking runs.

All three teams finished off the year fantastically, winning all games apart from one draw.

Enjoy your well earned rest from playing East and we look forward to seeing you all in the New Year when we start the first match of 2022 on Sunday 23rd January
