View youngsters take on the pros

Lewes Bridge View under-10s upheld a club tradition by attending the annual international tournament hosted by the Ecole de Football Reims Sainte Anne Chatillons at the Stade Robert Pires. Forty-eight teams, including many representing professional clubs, were invited from ten countries competing over two days.

On day one View lost to eventual third-placed Tunis before putting in a run of two wins and two draws.

Their good form and team spirit continued on the second day with two further wins before their only other loss of the tournament. Their final game went to penalties, but View won through to secure a respectable 19th place ahead of a number of the pro teams.

The squad was Jack Allsobrook (goalkeeper), Jack Martin, Harry Oliver, Harry Millar, Max Manklow, Harrison Burley, Ryan Dartnell, Callum Connor, Frazer Johnstone.
