Merry Christmas Exmouth United Under 11s

Our Christmas party was great fun! The food was delicious, the quiz was fantastic and the boys really enjoyed themselves. Thanks to the Cricket Club for providing the venue. Thanks to Julie, Justin and everyone for making it a an enjoyable time. It was brilliant that so many families could come.

The singing and dancing during meant I had to merge multiple pictures to get them all looking in the same direction!

Exmouth United 4-5 Moors Hawks

United started very strongly taking an early lead with a great halfway line effort from Harry KR. Moors equalised with a good header but Exmouth's counter-attacking prowess soon put them back in the lead with a neat goal from Joe G. Another fast moving attack saw Kuba S's cross turned into his own net by a Moors defender and Bryn S added another with an excellent left foot strike from the edge of the box. 

At 4-1 up United looked odds on for the victory but a very impressive second half from the visitors saw them gradually claw their way back into the game. Just before the final whistle their left winger made a superb run past three players before slotting the ball home to claim a 5-4 win. A very good game of football but a real shame for United after starting so promisingly.

Exmouth United 1-2 Pinhoe Spartans

On a blustery December morning, we hosted Pinhoe Spartans who have had an impressive run of results since we beat them in the first match of the season. After an even start to the match two early strikes put the visitors ahead after 15 minutes. As usual, Exmouth kept their heads up and continued to battle hard. Their perseverance was soon rewarded when Bryn S's first time shot from outside the box curled effortlessly into the top corner giving the keeper no chance.

In the second half United made a number of chances. The closest resulted in a goal line clearance from a Jay L shot after he rounded the keeper. However, the Spartans held on for their victory.

Notable contributions were made by Seb H and Jack G in the midfield. Indeed every player put in a solid performance as part of a strong team effort.
