Our Wanderers U10 boys travelled to Axminster with a depleted squad, fielding just seven players due to unavailability.

Despite the challenge, they put in a spirited performance, showing glimpses of their usual passing style.

The team moved the ball well at times but struggled with tired legs as the game wore on. Luck was not on their side, as they struck the woodwork three times through Tom Kennen, Jude Norman, and Rex Beatty.

However, their perseverance paid off when Kennen found the net with a well-taken goal, providing a well-earned highlight in a lacklustre match.

The players showed great determination and teamwork. A huge thank you to kit sponsor, Roadchef, and jacket sponsor, R&M Motors, for their continued support.

A special mention also goes to the parents on the sidelines for their encouragement throughout the game. Their positive support kept the team going in challenging conditions.

The Wanderers will take the positives from this performance and look ahead to their next match with renewed energy.
