An England Select with players born in 1993 & 1994 went abroad to Barcelos – Portugal for 4 days training which included training sessions and friendly games.

We went Thursday evening 19th October and back on Tuesday morning 20th October.
This was the third trip with the boys and there is a big improvement from February when we had the first trip.

The objective for these trips is to develop players for 2009/2010 European Schoolboys to ensure we can be more competitive team and play for at least third place.

Friday we had 2 training sessions, first at Barcelos Sport Centre and second at Campo Sport Centre and then in the evening we played Fao at Fao Sport Centre, we won 7-5 (in February we played them and we lost 4-2).

Saturday we had 2 training sessions in Barcelos Sport Centre (morning and evening) and we played Seixas at Barcelos Sport Centre in the afternoon and we won 14-0.

Also, we were invited by the President of Oquei de Barcelos to watch in the evening Oquei de Barcelos versus Portosantense for Portuguese Premier League at Barcelos Sport Centre (Barcelos won 4-2).

Sunday we had a training session at Barcelinhos Sport Centre in the morning and then we played Oquei de Barcelos at Barcelinhos Sport Centre in the afternoon and we lost 6-2.

Monday we had a training session at Barcelos Sport Centre in the morning and then we played ED Viana (youth level for Juventude de Viana) at Juventude de Viana Sport Centre in the evening and we won 14-2.

We had 6 training sessions (14 hours in total) and we played 4 games (wining 3 and loosing 1).
The quality of our individual and tactical play was well appreciated by all the clubs and Portuguese press.

Arthur and I are very pleased with the players’ attitude and with the improvement shown during all sessions and games.

Herne Bay United travelled to St Omer, France last Saturday to contest the first leg of the Champions League cup. The boys arrived in good spirit and after the formal introduction announced over the rink public address system the players settling into the match with St Omer pressing hard from the start.

The home team continued to push HBU with Danny Barton saving countless shots on goal. On occasions HBU would break away to put shots on Fabien Savreux, St. Omer’s number one goalkeeper and current French national team keeper.

As the match progressed HBU started to loose the legs and SCRA St. Omer took advantage and sealed HBU’s fate. 5 – 1
