Back to Romsey for battle of the under 16s , both boys and girls played against Basingstoke and Andover respectively. Both matches were a spectacle that any neutral would have paid to watch! However if a Romsey supporter it was very tense at times and both teams gave their all in their last matches of the season.
There were goals, amazing saves, balls hitting posts and lots of cheering from some amazing supporters. In the end the final score in both games was 2-2
A fitting end to the season for all these teams and hopefully some Mums enjoyed too!
Well done all! 🏑☀️
