Coton U12 Girls vs Sawston U12 Girls, Coton
League

In their first hit out post-lockdown our U12 Girls welcomed a wily Sawston team to the Coton Rec. With such a long break between games both teams cautiously eased into the match, dusting off the pandemic cobwebs, regaining those first touches, and probing the opposition for weakness. An unfortunate ball-to-hand in the box gave Sawston the first opportunity of the match. Making herself large in the goal mouth, Nat got just enough on the ball to push it onto the crossbar and maintain her clean sheet. The second quarter brought an end to the deadlock as a shepherding run from Emma relieved the Sawston attack of the ball and gave Coton front foot ball. A pin point accurate cross from Bryony on the right found an advancing Julie who put her first touch to good effect, finding the bottom right corner and beating the Keep. Awoken, Sawston immediately struck back with a storming repost, only for Emma and Ellen to cut the attack dead in its tracks. Just minutes from half time a final surge from Sawston found them with numbers in the box and the Sawston attack thumped in a leveller to bring the scores even going into the break.

The emphasis for the second half was to build on the intensity of the first half, and also to test the Sawston Keep with a barrage of shots on goal. With Shannon in the midfield engine room, a well-directed lob cut out the Sawston midfielders and found Hettie in space. Wrong-footing her defender, Hettie drove forward centrally, drawing in the core Sawston defense. Hettie laid off a clever ball to find Anais for the shot. Sailing just to the left of the post, the shot signalled to Sawston that Coton was on the attack this half. Elliyah, commanding in midfield, used her long limbs and pace to great effect, disrupting and curtailing the Sawston attack, preventing them from establishing go-forward momentum on the ball. Ari, relentlessly driving the ball forward, was determined to break the deadlock. Working the ball up the pitch she found Shannon in space and used her to switch play to Julie on the left, winning a corner for Coton. Hettie, composed in defense, relieved the Sawston attack of the ball time and time again. Playing the ball flat to Ellen allowed a forward surge and a lay off to Julie on the left for a deft 1-2. Ellen then poked the ball into space for Shannon to step over, wrong foot her defender and break the deadlock with a lovely finish. Minutes later, Bryony and Ari worked the ball right from the back and used Shannon again to switch play to the left. Julie’s left boot at range sealed the match for Coton in a well fought, and well-deserved victory. Well played Girls!👍⚽️ ... See MoreSee Less

Coton U11 Girls vs Cambourne United U11 Girls, Cambourne
League

The second match post-Lockdown 3.0 saw Coton travel to Cambourne to seek retribution for the last time these two accomplished teams met. The Girls focused on four key areas: to show bravery, to work cohesively as a team, to be relentless, and most importantly, to enjoy themselves. Working from a strong structure, and pressing high, the Girls put immediate pressure on Cambourne. Tesni played a lovely ball to Julie, putting her on the front foot to surge down the left flank. A deft 1-2 interchange with Shannon gave Julie the space and time she needed to whip the first shot on target and put Coton on the scoreboard. Moments later, another quality ball from Tesni found Emily on the left. Emily’s incisive pass found Shannon in the middle. Engulfed by defenders, Shannon laid off the ball to Indy, who beat two defenders down the right and put Shannon on the spot to bring up Coton’s second. A thumping strike from Julie and an ‘up the guts’ drive from Shannon brought up four and showed the threatening potential of the high press. Cambourne, determined, found the back of the net from a beautifully lofted shot to end the first half.

The second half saw more of the same, Coton holding space, taking time on the ball and playing intelligent passes. A standout feature was the way the entire team responded to the transition when losing the ball, getting back behind the ball and snuffing out Cambourne’s half chances. Shannon and Julie in goal had little if anything to do while Bam and Katerina shepherded away attacking forays, Emily and Sophie drove the ball up the wings and Cha, Indy and Tes threatened the Cambourne defenders. Emily wrong-footed an advancing defender to give Cha go-forward ball. Cha’s delicate touch put Julie in the perfect spot to find the back of the net and bring up her hat trick. A pin point corner from Indy found Shannon on the spot to bring up her fourth and to seal off a well fought team effort. Leaving nothing out on the pitch, and a complete performance behind them, the Girls retired to the side line with smiles all around. Well done Girls!

Coton U11 Girls vs Haverhill U11 Girls, Haverhill
League
With the end of Lockdown 3.0 almost in sight, the welcome restart of Saturday morning
football was a sight for sore eyes. A first up League match away from home gave our Girls the
chance to dust off some lockdown cobwebs, and, more importantly, to welcome two new
members to the squad, Frosso and Katarina.
The first quarter started with a fizz. Early pressure from Coton tested Haverhill within the first 2 minutes. Katarina’s first touch for Coton put Emily on the front foot, allowing her to thread
a cross to Shannon on the hop. A deft poke into space gave Julie just what she needed to put
Coton on the scoreboard. Having Haverhill on the back foot, Coton doubled down with goal’s
from Shannon and with Juliet bringing up her hat-trick. A super start, and certainly very little
evidence of cobwebs.
The second quarter started off as the first had finished, with Coton holding their structure,
playing the ball comfortably to feet and finding space. Frosso linked up with India and Sophie
to spin the Haverhill defence. Lia pulled out her telescopic throw, lobbing the Haverhill
defence and finding Sophie in space. Instinctively, Sophie sent the ball to the back of the net with her less favoured left boot. Crunching tackles by Amandine and Lia in defence kept the
ball well away from Matilda in goal.
During the pep talk at half time, Coach Ollie asked the Girls to build on the first half and to
continue to play for each other. The Girls responded, playing tall and on the front foot,
mucking in on defence and swarming forward on attack. Some stellar footwork from India
had her breeze past 3 defenders deep into her right corner and whip a cross into the box for
Cha to jump on the end of and send the ball to the back of the net. A spectacular throw-in
from Tesni found Julie in space. Julie whipped the ball across to Indy who had all the time in
the world to slot the ball passed the Keep from outside the box. Moments later Tesni was in
the mix again with a storming goal from just over half way! Classic Tesni! Not to be outdone,
Lia took matters into her own hands and drove the length of the field to put a belter on target.
The ball spilled free and Emily pounced to bring up the dozen for Coton. Two well-fought goals
from Haverhill were well deserved and equally well executed, closing out the match on a high.
Well done Girls.. and welcome back Saturday morning Footy!👍⚽️ ... See MoreSee Less

Brilliant to see the teams back out playing football again after the long break. We've all missed it!

Coton U16 Girls looked a bit rusty in the first half against a resilient and hardworking Newmarket team, with a goalkeeper in outstanding form. Our girls made the breakthough in the second half and an assortment of goals and near misses meant we took all 3 points and moved to the top of the league for the first time this season. Well done girls! (Highlights on our YouTube channel!)👍⚽

Thank you for sharing x

I have had information that the moped was taken by 3 men at around 11.10/15 and wheeled up to the turning past the telephone box and flats on right of silverdale avenue behind the houses on whitewall way, pic of location in photo attached. Quite a few houses look out onto this turning. If anyone saw anything/ a van that was there at the time etc please can you get in touch.

Coton U12 Girls took to a rather muddy pitch this morning for one final league match before the Christmas break. Their opposition, a tough and well drilled Chesterton side who have only dropped points in one game all season. With just 5 performances together as a team, Coton’s focus today was to continue to build confidence on the ball, bring greater presence to the mid-field and play in a more aggressive and assertive manner. The 3-4-1 formation allowed the Girls to dominate midfield early, threading passes together and using changes in direction well to capitalising on the slippery surface. Two early shots on goal, by way of Shannon and Julie’s boots, tested the Chesterton Keep and put the team on the back foot. Shannon pounced on the end of a well struck corner from Hettie to put Coton ahead. At the other end, a flurry of desperate legs, bodies and goalie gloves prevented a certain goal as the ball ricocheted around the penalty box in the mud. As the half wore on, Chesterton grabbed one back with a drive down the middle to even up the match. This was short-lived however as Ari won the ball, slipped it out to Hettie, whose shot deflected off the Keep into Shannon’s path to nudge Coton back in front as the half came to an end.

Coton’s defense was tested early in the second half. Repelling a concerted barrage from Chesterton was Emma’s blinding speed outstripping any break-away’s, Ellen’s ever-faithful right boot, and some spectacular anticipation from Nat in goal as she surged out to stifle several attacks. The sustained pressure prevented us from playing our go-forward game and Chesterton seized the opportunity knocking in two swift goals, turning the game and putting them in front with 15 mins to play. Coton lifted the tempo with some lovely through-balls from Bryony, relentless pursuit of the ball by Shannon, with a shot on goal one minute and a goal line clearance the next, and some lovely juggling headers by Ari. Despite the pressure from Coton, Chesterton managed to sneak in a couple of goals in quick succession against the run of play to seal off the match with minutes to spare. Frustration for Coton as they’d come so close, but also real heart shown out on the pitch, demonstrating just how far the Girls have come in such a short time. What a positive and assertive performance against a top-notch side, and a great way to round out 2020. Well battled Girls!👍⚽️ ... See MoreSee Less
