Injuries hinder Youth


10/ 8/2005

INJURY-HIT Macclesfield and District FA youth team just missed out in the final of the prestigious Umbro International Youth Soccer Tournament.

Missing five players through injury, the lads lost 2-0 against Bolton in the decider of the four-day competition.

It was still a fantastic achievement from the 16 to 17-year-olds, who were playing in 18 to 19-year-olds age group against teams from Manchester, Republic of Ireland and Norway.

Macc progressed through the group stages before they defeated local rivals Altrincham FC 3-1 in the semi-final to reach the final for the fifth time in eight years.

The Macc FA would like to thank sponsor Steve Warren and Sovereign Security Specialised Services for their great support.
