U13 Tigers Take Kent By Storm!
Our U13 Tigers have had a brilliant first season in the Kent Youth League!
They are currently joint top of the Kent League (North) Division and they also won the Kent League Cup in March by beating a very strong Glebe side 2-0 in the floodlit final at Lordswood FC.
However, their biggest achievement was on 1st April when they won The Tesco Kent County Cup (left) for the first time in Long Lane’s history! They defeated an excellent Ebbsfleet United side now progress on to represent the County in the National competition. Manager Dean Bresnahan is very proud of the boy’s who are a real credit to our Club and the Kent League.
We are extremely lucky at Long Lane to have such a strong U13 age group. Our Lions, managed by Rob Nelson, have also had a really good season in the Kent Youth League (South) and the Pumas, run by Alan Gordon, have done well in the Selkent Division.
This squad have been unbelievably successful over the last seven years. The photo (right) is of the original squad in 2006 when they won their first trophy on tour in Bournemouth in 2006. Since that time they have won:
- County Cup - 1
- League Championships – 5
- League Cups – 2
- League Trophies – 1
- Club Tours – 6
- Tournaments – 32
They have also finished as runners up in:
- League Championships – 2
- League Cups - 2
- Club Tours – 2
- Tournaments – 18
We wish all three U13 teams continued success in the future!
