St Agnes Ladies 7-aside Tournament
St Agnes Ladies hosted their second Ladies seven aside football Tournament on Sunday 18th July at Enys Parc and were thrilled with the response with 22 Ladies Teams entering.
The competition was played across three pitches and saw all teams play 9 fixtures competing for three separate trophies.
A varied mix of abilities saw both experienced high flight teams from Plymouth Argyle Ladies, Newquay Ladies, Totnes, and Dartington playing on pitches next to the best of Cornish Ladies Teams from Torpoint and Bude, and ladies teams playing within the Cornwall Women's Football League (including this years new club Trevenson).
The Tournament Winners Cup was eagerly contested between Newquay and Falmouth, with Newquay narrowly lifting the silverware. The Supplementary Cup Final was between Marine Acadamy and Truro Ladies with penalties needed to decide the winners as Marine Acadamy. The Printout Trophy saw Torpoint lift the silverware in a great spirited final over host club St Agnes Ladies.
St Agnes AFC Chairman Mandy Kimmins said, "I am absolutely thrilled with the response and attendance at our 2nd Ladies Tournament. I am delighted at the ever growing interest there is in female football across the county and I would really like to thank all the clubs who entered, the 5 referees who freely gave their time to this event, and everyone else who supported and sponsored it along the way!"
The proceeds from the Tournament will be divided equally between Cancer Research UK (St Agnes Branch) and St Agnes AFC.
St Agnes AFC Ladies are now back in training on Wednesday evenings and would be delighted to hear from any women 16 years and over of any ability who would like to join their squad for the forthcoming 2010/11 season of football, fitness and fun!
