Alton Under 13 Cyclones entered the Ash United Football Festival on Sunday 26 May and finished runners up in the Plate competition, losing in the final on a penalty shoot out.
The tournament lasted 7 hours, 18 teams entered the under 13 age group, the Cyclones played 11 games in total, winning 5, drawing 3 and losing 3.
The boys showed tremendous resilience, stamina and mental toughness, recovering from a poor start when losing 2 of their first three games but then playing some amazing football.
Disappointed to lose on a penalty shoot out but the coaches and parents are very proud of their achievement.
