3rd Year

U14 Football Team

Coaches Mr Allen, Mr Galloway and Mr Hendrie would like to acknowledge the hard work and excellent team spirit displayed by U14 Football Team during their hard fought 3-3 draw with Castlehead High School at Cowan Park Monday evening. 

Craig Campbell opened the scoring with a spectacular 25 yard free kick, but Barrhead were unfortunate to concede an equaliser a few minutes later. Robbie Townsend restored the lead with a cool finish from a tight angle before Castlehead once again drew level.  A speculative effort scored late in the game seemed to tip the tie in favour of the visitors, but Barrhead refused to accept defeat and Luke Wilson epitomised this never say die attitude, forcing the ball over the line  late in the game to secure a well earned point.

The players involved were – Ross Cooper, Ben Clements, Luke Wilson, Craig Lundie, David Mundemba, Robbie Townsend, Scott Gubbins, Daniel McCusker, (c), Gary Pritchard, Jamie McQuade, Michael Toal, & Craig Campbell (c).

 Well done!
