NEW SEASON OF 5 A SIDE IN ABINGDON

We kicked off another Wednesday night season in Abingdon last night with a buzz of excitement and a hope for success from all teams. Last seasons champions Socios got off to a strong start with a 7 - 3 win over The Mighty Ducks while the other two games in the top flight produced absolute classics as Dynamo Abingdon beat Botley Wanderers 5 - 4 and Saka Potatoes just came out on top against Basically Barca, eventually winning 10 - 9 to go second. 

Division One saw Bacon Sane pick up a points win against CAT Clan while the goals flew in for FCUOB as they won 9 - 1 against Pathetico Madrid. Murder on Zidanes Floor also picked up a good win in a high scoring game against Grove Army, 9 - 6 the score in that one.

Newcomers Royal Mail Drid made a dominant start to life in Division Two, racking up the goals against Unremarkables while Maragonna started well with a 5 - 3 win against Wenger Boys. We also had a tense draw in the game between Ale Stars and Slough Posse, ending 4 - 4 as the teams share the spoils on the opening night of the season.

So we are underway again and judging by the results it looks like the divisions will be mostly quite tight, time will tell though. Big thanks to all the captains for getting organised and to our brilliant officials for managing match night.
