There were outstanding performances from a number of young members of the team including Georgie, Anna, Ashleigh and player of the match Chloe.

The men’s 2s came up against the Cheshunt 1st team and proved they are very capable of competing in the higher league after promotion last season.

The feature of the performance was the outstanding defensive display, while man of the match went to Jamie Holderness.

The men’s 3s continue to provide some outstanding performances with a brilliant 2-0 win away at Letchworth – man of the match Jake Alderson led the way for Berko with a commanding performance.

The men’s 4s played out a 1-1 draw with Cheshunt, while the ladies’ 3s were very unlucky to lose a match against Letchworth.

They had dominated the match but just couldn’t put the ball in the back of the net, and a late Letchworth winner gave the game a very unfair look. Finally, the men’s 5s came off second best in an early game away at Bishop Stortford; the highlight was a great goal by young Ollie Webb.
