Our Advanced U8’s and U9’s train once a week every week at Stratton Community Centre and since training for the first time as a team in September 2014 all the players have come on leaps and bounds in their ability, but also their attitude and effort to training has been excellent. The Bicester games were a chance for the players to put all of what they have learnt from their training sessions into a game situation and the results were brilliant with the players playing some excellent football and playing the game in a great manner. STFiTC Advanced Centre Manager Steven Pawelek commented ​“The whole evening was a great success for the boys right before Christmas and they played some good stuff tonight, the players have all showed tonight that they have absorbed the training session information really well and the coaches can take lots of positives out of the games. Many thanks to Bicester for coming out to Stratton for the matches too”
