Dragon's Under 9's have pulled off a fantastic league and cup double after hard fought 1.0 wins in the semi final and final of the Tony Pryce Cup at the Wyvern club on Saturday.


This followed on from last weekends nail biting 4:2 win against Wellington to secure the league title.

This is a great achievement in our first year of competitive football - well done to all the boys! and all involved!


Martin.

Having already completed winning the league the under 11's defeated their closest rivals Bishops Ldeard 4 nil in the Cup Final today.

The team played superb football with a strong midfield and defence and some superb finshing by the strikers.

Well done to you all

Galmington Dragons continue to go from strength to strength with the club confirming it will field a side in next season's newly formed Division Five of the Taunton and District Saturday League.

Current under-16s manager Allan Hilton has agreed to take forward those members of the current team who have shown the requisite attitude and commitment.

Although aimed at under-17s, the team will be bolstered on the pitch by many of its current coaching staff who have offered to pass on their wisdom and experience to the youngsters.

A huge lift has been given to the project by the announcement that Dave Chambers, currently with Hamilton and whose son plays in one of the junior Dragons teams, will come across as skipper and joint manager.

The idea of launching an adult side was floated at a brainstorming session which led to the publication of the club's development plan and means all its members now have the opportunity of a route through into the men's game.

As well as its coaches, the side has also recruited some sixth formers at Huish College who had previously been too old to fit into the present age group structure.

Pre-season training will be arranged in due course and a sponsor is actively being sought at the start of what must be one of the most exciting chapters in the club's 11 year history.

Any enquiries should be addressed to Allan on (07850) 666724 or Dragons child welfare and developement officer, Simon Trump, on (07836) 340305.

On the 14th March at Taunton Town FC ground at Lisieux Way the Under 13's will play Blackbrook, in what is anticipated to be a thrilling game.

Having met twice already this season, Blackbrook are currently top of the table and unbeaten, so the 3-3 draw in the League is the only points they have lost all season, apart from knocking us out in the County Cup 4-1.

So we need everyone from Club Members / Players / parents alike to come
along and cheer the boys on.

Time to be announced as soon as more details are available.

Galmington Dragons Under 11's are continuing their successful season and have reached the final of the Tony Pryce League Cup.

A hard fought win over Wembdon will see a final against Bishops Lydeard on 27th March 2010.

With two league games to play the team remain on course to take the league title and are unbeaten this season.

Well done.

Galmington Dragons Inter Under 9's have reached the finals day of the Tony Pryce cup after second round success against Tone Youth, Bishops Lydeard and Bridgwater Wolves at Trull Park on Saturday.


Despite having the bare 7 players Dragons won all 3 of their second round pool games to finish top of the group & proceed to the finals day on Sat 27th March. "I'm really proud of the way the boys performed" commented manager Martin Day, "to play three of the strongest sides in the league without any subs and come out on top with a 100% record and no goals conceded is a fantastic effort".


Further details for the finals day will be posted once known, it would be great to see other club members there to support us on the day.
