A relatively inexperienced Casuals U13 team had a fantastic Outdoor Final, to come fourth, a result which belied their improvement in every game, with a memorable win in the last game against GD Viso. Viso opened the scoring but Captain Martim (of the Lima clan) soon replied with his first of three and Sebastian Baird scored the fourth, all from open play with almost every move started up the right wing by lightning fast Maarten Green (we hope you train more hockey and less football next season!). With revelations Margot and Ana putting up a sterling defence in front of novice goalie Manuel, Viso did not manage to get through to the Casuals goal again.
Other results:- 1-4 vs. eventual winners Casa Pia; 1-8 vs. AD Lousada, 1-6 vs. AA Espinho. Scorers: Martim, Sebastian and Pedro Leitão, one goal each.
Many thanks to Hugo Jesus for coaching the team during the two days and congratulations to Sebastian Baird being selected for the 2015 U13 Outdoor Dream Team.”
