Atrocious weather conditions can't stop Greswold boys finishing on a high!

Last night marked the final matches of the boys' football league season against Balsall Common and Haslucks Green at Solihull Moors.

 

The players had to contend with atrocious weather conditions with torrential rain and blustery winds making both matches even more challenging.  However, the weather didn't seem to affect their commitment and attitude in the slightest.

 

After going a goal behind to Balsall Common in the first match, Greswold dominated the second half and thanks to a last-minute thunderbolt from Adam, the team eventually ran out 2-1 winners. 

 

In their second game, Greswold again had to come from behind but this time with an immediate equalizer from Lenny to make the final score 1-1.  It has to be said that the values and attitudes on show by all of the players throughout the evening was second to none, especially when rival players were letting their own frustrations show.  

 

It really does demonstrate how Greswold pupils can maintain their own and Greswold’s standards and values when applying them out of school and in such challenging conditions.  Well done boys, we’re all very proud of you.  

 

Greswold’s season finished with 2 wins, 3 draws and only one loss in a very close league, and just like the girls' season, the boys will have to wait and see whether their performances have helped them to make it through to the league playoffs.  We will wait and see with cross fingers.........
