Two teams representing Gedling Southbank Girls came out on top at a tournament held in Newark over the weekend.
The U12s and U14s teams both came away winners of their groups at the Newark Referee’s Society tournament over at Newark Flowserve.
Southbank managed to field seven teams in the tournament, with all coming close to scooping rewards during the contest.
Andy Bates, who is head of the Girls’ Section for Gedling Southbank, said: “To get so many girls out playing at the same venue on the same day is a testament to hard work and commitment from our coaches and players, and demonstrates the unity that we’re trying to build across the whole section.
“Girls from our U10s, U11s (x2), U12s, U13s, U14 and U15s took to the field and gave their all on a stiflingly hot Sunday afternoon, with a massive support from assorted family and friends.
“It’s an incredible achievement that we got so many girls in the one spot, representing the red and white of GSB, far outnumbering any other club present and all interacting with one another demonstrating what a great family club this is.
He added: “Thank you all for your support and especially for making yesterday a really proud moment for me.”
