TEAM OF THE WEEK: U11 BOYS FOOTBALL The Under 11 A and B teams have had a rather slow start to the term, but have finally been finding some form (and a few goals!). The U11 teams have had some narrow defeats this season, but under the management duo of Ward and Kirkwood, the Brighton board have ignored home fans requests for Jose Mourinho to take over This week, that faith was rewarded as the U11A team managed to record a 3-1 win over Cambridge High School with goals from Alex Ure and Max Jones. The U11B team have gone one better and now recorded two successive victories over Al Mushrif (2-1) and again this week (2-1 over BSAK C) in a nail biting finish and a late winner from Remi.
