U17 – South / East League Cup Semi Final | Hibernian 2 v Forfar Farmington Falcons 0

The U17’s travelled down to a very windy Hibs training ground. Previously been held to a 0-0 draw at Station Park in the league, and it was clear the strong wind would play a major role in the tie, with Farmington playing into the wind in the first half which gave Hibs the advantage as most of the action was in the Farmington half, the girls fought hard and managed to clear half way into the Hibs half which was good play considering the condition’s. However opposition managed to capitalise and found the back of the net twice which did not dampen the girls spirits, as did not the horizontal rain at the end of the first half.

Farmington kicked of the second half and again most of the action was in the Hibs half with the girls involved in a lot of action for the possession of the ball, when Hibs did get into the Farmington half they could not break the defence down, but unfortunately the girls could not use the windy conditions to there advantage.

The girls kept battling right to the end but Hib’s came out on top and proceeded to the finals of the League cup.

U17s Murieston v Farmington Falcons

Our Under 17s Falcons travelled for the second week to Bankton Mains, Livingston too face a Murieston team whom had a score to settle after their exit in the previous week from the League cup to the Falcons. Murieston came out fighting and took there chances and got the early lead with the Falcons then netting the equaliser before Murieston then took the lead for the second time from the penalty spot.

The Falcons then battled back with the majority of the play and went on to take the lead, good team spirit and determination gave them the deserved 3 points.

Falcons Fundraising Success

Forfar Falcons under 15s are participating in an international football tournament run by MSV Novelo, Oisterwijk Holland in June this year. 

They are representing Scotland in this well attended competition and will be playing against teams from Germany, Wales, Holland and Spain.

To help fund this trip they are undertaking several fundraising events, the first of which was a bag pack last month at Tesco.

A fantastic sum of £894 was raised which is a great start to the fund.

Farmington Youngsters Involved In SFA Coaching Course

The club are encouraging their young footballers to expand on their football knowledge by getting involved in coaching courses.

16 year old Performance Squad members Leah White and Caitlin Mitchell along with 18 year old Rachelle Milton from our Ladies squad all took part in the recent SFA East Region 1.1 Early Touches course at Brechin High School.

All three girls have been involved with the club’s youth setup by coaching the U7 and U9 groups. It is an ideal situation to have these young women, who have achieved so much at Farmington, help with the junior girls and offer real female football role models for the youngsters at the club.

Junior Co-ordinator Jane Luckhurst is pleased to see players get involved with coaching younger girls, explaining: “In order to be successful our club relies heavily on volunteer help, as every club does, but the ideal situation would be if we could encourage more players to get involved in the coaching side of the club. This allows them to pass on their knowledge to the junior girls, and the junior girls are delighted to have the older players as coaches.”

Leah, Caitlin and Rachelle will all be taking part in the Level 1.2 course next month.

The club held their annual presentation evening on Saturday at the Reid Hall in Forfar, with the ceremony attended well by players, coaches, supporters and parents alike.
