Pennell said: “They have had a dream season. The boys have really worked hard this season and played a lot of football.

“Unfortunately not all the team could attend and we were missing Charlie Jackson, Franco Cowley, and Sam Cartwright who have all played their part in getting the team to where they are now.”

Both teams are now focusing their attentions to the summer tournaments before a well-earned break.
