“Another "black day" for Parks saw both senior teams easily defeated and also their under-18 side go
down at the hands of Albion.

Officials at Parkside had high hopes for their under-18 side this year (especially after their first win
for 15 years against Spotswood the week before).But it now looks as if Albion is the side to beat in
this section.

However, the under- 14's carried on their good form from the week before when they overcame the
loss of captain, Michael Crick.

Michael was born on the first of March and thus declared an under-16 player) to win their first ever
game in the competition, in scoring good win over Kingsville.”
