The Under 13s beat Halstead Blues - currently top of the 'B' league - 5-3 at home in the first round of the league cup. The result does not really represent the match: Bergholt were 5-0 up mid way through the second half and coasting to the point where the manager switched things round to give some of the other players an opportunity. Unfortuntely a fluke goal from near the half way line which dropped into the roof of the net with the Bergholt keeper stranded gave Halstead the belief they could score and the lack of experience in certain positions began to tell as Bergholt lost their shape and passing. Two further goals came in the next few minutes so the manager brought a couple of the rested players back on. This steadied the ship and the match was seen out fairly comfortably in the end. Bergholt Heath goal scorers: Antonio Sabini x 2, Owen Bernhardt, Mickey Whittle, James Holden. Bergholt 'man of the match' : Ollie Sanderson.
Having played the two teams who are favourite for the league title in recent weeks, our Under 14s got back to wining ways with a 3-2 win away to Torquespeed. Ed Quilty x 2 and Ben Kensdale were the Bergholt goal scorers.
The Under 16s could only field a team comprising 9 players this week, and went down 11-0 away to Clacton Community.
Finally our Under 18s had a creditable 2-2 draw away to Colchester Athletic. Callum Drage and Glen Wheeler scoring the Bergholt goals.
