Great afternoon with Layer Colts U13 at the playground. Highly recommend it for team building non-stop laughter, smiles, and memories made together.
As we close the chapter on U13, it’s been a fantastic journey filled with development, friendship, teamwork, and plenty of great moments. Proud of every player and grateful to everyone who has supported the team along the way.
Layer Colts U13 completed. Bring on U14! ⚽💙
Congratulations to our U12s Reds who won the Colchester and District Youth League (D League) with a record of 16 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss. Well done to Tendring Borough and Wivenhoe Town in what was an exciting battle right up to the last game of the season.
