CCB's started with great form and plenty of goals. 2 surprise losses by 1 goal each followed by a washout and bye have left them winless for a while. Todays game could be the make or break of them. Certainly wouldn't write them off unless they suffered a heavy loss.
So do we have some scores from today's games?
Saw this on Hamo's facebook. They played Charlestown I think.

CCB v Olympic U/15 game was an absolute cracker and a credit to all players and coaches involved, two teams that rise to play each other. If these boys continue to develop than both clubs should have some great young players coming thru.
Hope so. Doesn't look like EJ'S will provide a lot in the future. I was surprised at their inability to control possession in all age groups yesterday. Had to rely too much on long balls over the top to get any territory. A few years ago they wouldn't allow sides a sniff of the ball and challenged opponents to take the ball off them. They should forget about shirt pulling and concentrate on quick passes on the ground and good support.
Bring back the Gumps!!!!
Yeah look hopefully the EJ program is continually developing both player and it self, if so it will turn out some good players, still to many hanger on r s for me, to many from same families and to many old timers.
Agree that a few years back the teams dominated possession, you are right, challenging teams to try and break them down.
Agree again with shirt pulling and also diving, you are correct, get back to playing football for gods sake !!!!!!!
Gumps.........................urm................. maybe ?????
A very interesting read on the NPL Thread 2015 about the Emerjging Jets fearless leader and how he is setting a good example. Worth a read!
yeah have read it.................
I haven't seen any Ejets games in quite awhile...wasn't their mantra to "play out" all the time ? surprised to hear them pumping long balls...
why do MT's posts keep disappearing ?????
my belief is that they still train to play out, they also train to control possession. But like all teams coaching can go out the window when under the pump or playing roster just isn't up to the job.
Perhaps the NPL youth is getting stronger all round and as you correctly pointed out WhyB, the Emerging Jets did seem to be under the pump. If it's wet Charlestown should also make it very slippery for the "shirt-pullers" next week.
Good luck.
That's a good question - they've disappeared more than once??
mate we will need all the luck every one can bless us with...................just to get one in the net !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was thinking they had been hamburgled ...................lol

Just had to reply to this one!
I am a huge fan of the NPL youth concept, already in only the second year I think most will agree the competition is stronger with less distance between the top and bottom teams. In another two years when the first 13s hit 17s the standard of play and player will be much higher, relative to last year.
So yes I think the clubs are catching up to the EJs, although in the 17s last year they already had.
