Player of the match went to Ellesha S for outstanding performance in defence.

Echo Premier League

Grays Athletic Youth 1 Thurrock B 0
Goalscorer: Josh

The 1 - 0 scoreline hides the fact that Grays were realistically never in any real danger of losing this match.

The match however was a scrappy affair with the ball spending a lot of time up in the air, not on the ground as Grays like to play.

The solitary goal was scored in the first half by Josh, beating the on-rushing keeper in a crowded box with a deft left footed flick.

Grays remain unbeaten and top of the Echo league.

GRAYS ATHLETIC U10 FRIENDLY 22nd September @ St.Cleres

Grays (Echo League) 4 Grays (Thundermite) 0
Goalsscorers: Klessa-Smith(hat trick), own goal

A friendly was arranged between 2 Grays U10 teams , the Echo League Team and the Thundermite Asteroids Division Team.The game was played over two 25 minute halves. A goal from Klessa-Smith (Echo U10 team) divided the two teams at half time. Klessa-Smith added another 2 goals in the second half to complete his hat trick and an own goal from a superb Price free-kick made it 4-0 at the final whistle. The Grays U10 Echo team produced a super display after a mediocre start to their league campaign and looked forward to the following days league game away at Collier Row.

Collier Row 0 Grays Athletic 8

Goalscorers: Klessa-Smith , Price (both hat tricks), Edmonds and S.Pumfrett

A simply superb effort from the lads today as they thumped a majestic eight past Collier Row. Missing defender Potter and goalkeeper Dale due to illness the remaining members of the squad pulled together and played magnificently. A goal from striker S.Pumfrett after 1 minute set the tone for the game and for the remaining 39 minutes it was all one-way traffic.Klessa-Smith then missed a penalty after a handball.Strangely though Grays failed to double the lead until the 17th minute with a goal from Edmonds and then they scored a third from Price just before half-time. The second half started the same as the first when Price added a quick fourth after 2 minutes in and then completed his hat-trick three minutes later.Klessa-Smith then joined in with 3 goals to also get a hat-trick and complete a 8-0 rout.

Man-of-the-Match S.Pumfrett

Thurrock Lions 0 Grays Athletic Blue 2
Goalscorers: Jack, Reagan

In their first league game of the season a goal in either half from Jack and Reagan saw Grays run out worthy winners in a match they controlled from the start. So much was Grays domination in the first half especially that Tyler in the Grays goal hardly touched the ball, and they should have led by far more than the solitary goal poked in by Jack after a goalmouth melee. In the second half Grays, playing up the slope against a strong wind, continued to play controlled football but it wasn't until the last minute that Reagan wrapped up the points from close range.

Grays Athletic 2 Hutton Red 4
Goalscorer: Ben.W (2)
Grays had an unfortunate start to the season after being placed in the top division of the Thundermite League.
Their first game playing in the League left them with a 4-2 defeat. Grays went 1-0 down within a couple of minutes of play, the boys continued to battle and managed to level it up with a goal from Ben.W.
Hutton continued to fight, putting another 2 goals in the back of the net. Grays came out fighting in the second half trying to get back their winning streak they started in pre season tournaments and friendlies. Ben.W scored his second goal (a penalty).
As Grays were chasing for another goal, Hutton scored their 4th. Today was not to be their day.

Keep your head up boys.
