U12’ s Hurricanes v Swinton Lions Challenge cup 10.12.2011 Hurricanes go marching on! A convincing 4-1 victory against Swinton Lions sees Hurricanes into the next round of the challenge cup for the first time in many years.

From the whistle Kai started accurately passing the ball out to both wings, something that had been lacking from their game in the last few weeks and so Hurricanes were able to create the first of many openings. ...

U11′s Hurricanes v Barr Hill Aces – 10/09/11
We’d played Barr Hill Aces in a friendly at theirs a week or so before and they were a stronger team, so drawing them as the first game for the season was always going to make it a tricky start for us – sadly, there were plenty of other reasons that would ensure that they clinched the 3 points off us.

U14S WIN IN STYLE
Beechfields u14s side got their season up and running in fine style today, On display today were 3 debutants in jordan jones-waite , oliver quinn and alex smith who quickly settled in the team, It was oliver who scored to put us in front with a cracking shot from just inside the box followed shortly by jordans first which was a thunderous volley from 25 yds out , timperley villa never posed any threat and it was no surprise when we scored our 3rd again jordan getting on the end of ryans pass, HT 3-0
The 2nd half we made a few changes to give all the players a run out and when timperley pulled a goal back it only spurred us on to go down the other end and score 4 more quality goals callum van dieman 2 and ben lockett, but the pick was luke mathers goal which finished off a great move involving 5 players, timperley did manage a late consolation thru a penalty when mike nearly decapitated their forward, FT 7-2
This was just the start we needed to get the season going, the passing and movement today was a joy to watch both as manager and spectator,
Man of the match went to jordan jones waite for an outstanding performance capped off with 2 superb goals
