CULLOMPTON vs Wellington U9s Football: Wellington travelled across the Devon boarder to play Cullompton at Culm Valley Sports Centre on Saturday morning.

It didn't take long for the visitors to get used to the Astro surface, playing some lovely passing football all around the pitch, from the keeper to the strikers.

Wellington started strongly, keeping the ball for the vast majority of the time. However, the elusive goal took a little while in coming. Wellington didn't panic and continued to push the ball around to create spaces and chances. Once the goal came the floodgates opened. A big difference was the strength in depth Wellington showed with all 10 players comfortable on the ball and playing their role in the team performance.

Wellington finished the game winning 11-0, the goalscorers being; Rex Beatty (4), Jack Jorge (3), Louis Molloy (2), Logan Thorpe and an own goal. There were some stand out moments from a fantastic team performance. However, a special mention should go to Jack Jorge for scoring a superbly executed overhead kick.

A big thank you to Roadchef (kit sponsor) and R&M Motors (jacket sponsor). Well done boys, you continue to shine and play great football.
