Despite a good effort from a fairly new look team at this years Brigg Tournament, we came runners up for the second year in a row. We started the day average drawing the first two games in the group stage but after that form picked up with us qualifying automatically for the semi-finals despite a 1-0 deafeat to Brigg Juniors. A near flawless performance against Gunness Wasps saw us run out 3-0 winners with goals from Lewis Clark(2) and tournament debutant Jordan Merril put us into the final. despite more flowing moves and chances at both endes neither Dale Park and Brigg Juniors found the net in normal or extra time resulting in a stalemate and penalties. After a typical lottery shootout it was Brigg who truimphed 4-3 on penoes. Well done to them and we hope to be back next year with a just as strong performance.
