Football Festival success

Teams of young footballers from Exeter and a visiting team from Plymouth took part in a mini soccer festival last weekend, hosted by Devon Football Association.

The nine teams across two age groups fought hard for the top spot, with U9 winners Central beating West Exe in their final, and U10 winners SB Frankfort from Plymouth beating City Raiders.

Organiser Matt Eddy said: “The festival was a really good opportunity for teams to test their skills up outside of the season in a one day competition. The teams really enjoyed playing each other and there was a great spirit of friendly competition on the day.”

Refreshments were provided by Paul Banks, CEO of festival sponsor, Fresha.
