The new Junior Blades U8 team held a very successful team bonding event at Hollywood Bowl on Tuesday night.

16 players turned up and had a great time and it was a great opportunity for the kids to meet one another away from the football field.

The Junior Blades are keen to promote the “fun” element of Junior football and this season every age group will be focussing on regular events away from the football pitch to encourage a strong and positive team spirit and also give the kids enjoyment and fun both on and off the pitch as well.

The turnout was great and the smiles, hugs and cheering with every spare and strike gave me the impression that everyone was having a fun time. We have only been together as a team for 3 weeks so I thought it was important to put on a bit of a social event to get the kids familiar with one another and create some friendships. We have a great group of kids and parents and I’m really looking forward to seeing the team develop over the upcoming season.
