Boca Boys in Reading Academy Squad

Fleet Spurs Under 10 Boca were proud to have two players from their team named in the Reading Academy squad to play at the Dome next to the Madejski Stadium on Friday 26^th October 2007.

Congratulations to Drew and H for their superb performances.

There were four games in total and both of the boys did Fleet Spurs proud. Drew absolutely dominated the midfield in his game. He did the simple things really well and made the impossible look easy! Drew scored a great goal but that only begins to tell the story. He was a huge part of every decent move Reading had.

His best moment was when he went around a couple of players on the left side and wrong footed the last man. He shot from well outside the area and rattled the crossbar with a Riise style shot.

H played in goal in one of the games and looked very assured and confident. He made himself big on an early one on one and the save increased his confidence. H then made a fantastic reaction save from close range.

Shane the Boca manager said “everyone that was at the Dome associated with Fleet Spurs was incredibly proud that Drew was in a class of his own and H had the best record for a Reading keeper on the night. The boys deserve a huge pat on the back for their fantastic achievements”. Shane went on to say “It is mine and Chillers goal to get more boys involved at football at a higher level over the next few weeks and we are in the process of setting up some events with other academies as a team. We do not need to push the boys but really need to push ourselves as coaches over the remainder of the season to ensure our boys reach their potential”.
