The 6’s won the first piece of silverware for the Club this season. They ground out a 2-1 win in strange circumstances over Old Parmiterians 6’s in the AFA Intermediate Novets Cup final.
Max Rushden put the lads in front early on after an assist from Rich Craig. There were then plenty of opportunities to put the game to bed, however the ball wouldn’t bounce right for Max, Lee Bolton and Dave Morgan in subsequent attacks.
An outrageous equaliser from Parms and then a winning goal by Lee was enough for the scoresheet, but a stout defensive display from all 14 involved on the day ensured that the Cup came back to Cavendish Road.
Elsewhere there was a mixed bag of results across the club along with the 4’s and 8’s being involved in double headers.
