ESFA Football Festival 2011
West Cornwall Under-14s entered the English Schools FA Isle of Wight Festival for the second year with the aim of providing the young players with experiences that will help develop them as footballers and as young men. Dealing with the heat as well the opposition was a great challenge for the players and they responded admirably on and off the pitch. The squad, managed by Cornwall College Camborne sports lecturer Dan Inch, competed in four matches over the five days as well as taking part in numerous activities to test the players. The performance of every player improved over the week as they adapted to the pace and intensity of the matches. A great learning experience for all involved. Results:
Game 1 vs Tameside (Manchester) Lost 3 - 0
Game 2 vs Nuneaton (Wales) Lost 7- 0
Game 3 vs Vale of White Horse (Oxfordshire) Drew 3 – 3 (L. Prynn 2, M. Vallejo)
Game 4 vs East Riding (Yorkshire) Lost 5 – 1 (L.Prynn)
