Belle Vue 3  Blanford Mere 3 a.e.t.

Belle Vue and Balnford Mere will share this season's Campbell Cup (Under 11's) after they fought out a six goal thriller at Fairhaven Primary School.  Belle Vue led twice in an highly entertaining and skillful game but on both occasions Blanford Mere fought back to equalise and then, with seven minutes to go scored to lead 3-2.  In the dying minutes Belle Vue equalised to take the game into extra time where neither school was able to score the goal needed to take the trophy.

Both keepers- Daniel Whale (Belle Vue) and Ryan Greenwood (Blanford Mere) made outstanding saves.  This is the first time in the history of the Trophy that it has been shared and although Belle Vue have won the trophy in previously years this is the first time that Blanford Mere's name will appear on the trophy.

WALSALL SNATCH LATE EQUALISER

Walsall 2  Brierley Hill & Dudley 2 
Walsall U.13's snatched a late equaliser against the run of play to gain a share of the points in this West Midlands League Fixture.   In an even first half Walsall took the lead after 10 minutes and with neither side troubling the keepers there was no further score at half-time. In the 2nd half Brierley Hill were the more determined and dominated play throughout the half and deservedly equalised when George Bowerman stabbed the ball home from close range after a mistake by the Walall keeper. Reece Harley scored a 2nd and Brierley Hill although creating many chances failed to add to their score and were punished when Walsall capitalised on a mistake and snathed a late equaliser.
