Pictured left:
The U8's team have improved week in and week out, since the start of the season and were this week celebrating their first goal.....the first of many, I'm sure.
They were all awarded the John Leyland Memorial Special Award Medal for their achievement.
The team was also issued with a "Player of Week" Award.
The trophy will be issued by Paul each week to his choice of player of match.
The John Leyland Special Award has been introduced to GGFC with a contribution made by Graham Leyland from donations received from family and friends after his dads recent passing.
On speaking to Graham, he said, "My dad thought the world of his Grand Children and always had a big interest in all of my daughters games and progress at GGFC.
Making a donation to help with player development at GGFC is something that I think my dad would have liked and would have been very proud of to do so".
His donation provided THREE substitute coats for the U11's, 100 Special Award medals, and TWO "Player of Week" Award Trophies.
