Match Report NMJFC U9 Vipers - 7th Nov 2026
This weekend our U9 Vipers faced Richmond Rovers Lazio for a lunchtime kick-off. Richmond teams are always good, well-coached teams and Lazio were no exception. Everyone was available to play so we had a full squad available. Before kick-off we observed a minute’s silence on Remembrance weekend to respect those who gave their lives for our country in conflict. Both teams observed it perfectly.
The focus in training is passing and moving, making a good pass and moving for the next pass. Not only that but controlling the ball well to ensure we keep possession as much as possible. The Vipers continue to develop their passing abilities but also their understanding of how we can move the ball forward as a team. Their confidence on the ball and in their abilities is showing each week.
The game was a feast of football, both teams played some fantastic football and we will certainly look forward to playing Richmond again, tough opponents, but who like to play football in the right way like we do. All spectators were treated to a superb showcase of grassroots football.
Player of the week this week was awarded by Richmond to Logan. Logan was imperious this week in all aspects of his game. His drive, determination and skill shone and he was rewarded for his efforts with a great goal and an assist. Well done Logan!
