On a harshly cold Sunday morning, the Kingswood u10’s wearing showing no mercy, like the weather, in their teams against Aretians. With gritted teeth and shivering hands the knights marched on. The bold decision to play as two separate teams showed fantastic results as the games went on. Both Blue and Brown team were amazing and performed to top quality showing determination even though it was cold. Kingswood was prepared for a tough battle through are previous history with Aretians and them winning last time we met. Kingswood was determined to keep his new winning spree going for as long as possible. So the battle was on.
