The Pembrokeshire Primary Schools Under 11s football squad played their Swansea counterparts at Camrose AFC recently. Results were as follows

Pembrokeshire A 2 Swansea A 0

Pembs. started off superbly, with Tom Mansbridge scoring early on down the slope. Pembs. kept the pressure on, with Rhys Morgan and Darren Gibson running well on the flanks. Osian Hill put Pembs. further ahead, while in defence, Nathan Froment and Joshua Hardman tackled well. Thomas Davies had another fine game, especially in the second half when Swansea piled on the pressure.

Dylan Noot played well in goal and his quick distribution of the ball helped set up many Pembrokeshire attacks. Jacob Hipkiss and Kian Lee came on in the second half and helped Pembs. to keep a clean sheet.

Pembrokeshire A 2 Swansea B 2

In their second match, Pembs. again went 2-0 up. Hill scored a fantastic goal that had the crowd gasping. Gibson added another and Hardman went very close on several occasions.

In the second half, Swansea pulled one back, when a lack of concentration allowed their forward to slip through the defence.

Some sterling defending by Davies, Morgan and Lee kept them out for a long time, but in the dying minutes, Swansea scored when a tall defender headed in from a well-taken corner.

Pembrokeshire B 0 Swansea B 3

Pembs. started off very slowly and never really got into the game.

Swansea scored early on, despite some great saves by Rhys Grigg. Jaden Chapman and Tate Lawrence tried to string passes together, but the Swansea players were a yard faster all over the pitch. Carl Thomas, Torin Nicolson and Tom Wright created several chances, but could not score.

The defence of James Gardner, Joe Pritchard and Joseph Griffiths found themselves overrun at times.

Pembs. B 0

Swansea A 3

This game was very similar, but in the last 10 minutes, Pembs. started to play football. Thomas went close twice and Pritchard almost scored. However, by this time Swansea were three goals up.
