April 23rd &\u00a024th\u200b 2016\u200b<\/p>\n

U7s<\/strong> played their\u00a0last games of the season against Pannal Ash, winning two, drawing one and losing the other.\u00a0All the kids played very well.\u00a0U8s<\/strong> played in a\u00a0gala and endured a\u00a0very frustrating morning.\u00a0The format consisted of 5 minute matches played on a tiny pitch. The lads did well but should have done so much better. Team A in their first match peppered the Wetherby goal for the whole game. Wetherby touched the ball about three times, one of which was a goal, so we lost the first game. We\u00a0won the others, then due to the rules not allowing subs, we had to drop two key players for the last match, which we lost, so went out. \u00a0Team B won three, drew two and didn’t concede a single goal today but still went out. They even beat Wetherby’s first team, who went on to win the competition.\u00a0\u200bU9s<\/strong> were terrific in an end of season tournament at Wetherby. The A team played 5 matches and didn’t concede a single goal. They managed a thumping win and 4 draws. Disappointingly, this wasn’t sufficient to progress to the semi finals which was a real shame as I’m convinced we were the best team in the group.\u00a0The B team exceeded all expectations by winning the group and getting to the semi finals. The match was level at\u00a0full time so we went to penalties. Despite our keeper pulling off a world class save with his face (he still has Mitre\u00a0imprinted on his cheek) we didn’t win and just missed out.\u00a0All in all it shows how far we have come in a year as the same players\u00a0struggled to compete\u00a0in last season’s tournament.\u200b<\/p>\n

U12s<\/strong> ended their losing run with an enjoyable and hard fought 2-2 draw with a good Wigton Moor side\u00a0(to whom we lost 5-1 only a few weeks ago).\u00a0And we nearly nicked it with the last kick of the game too.\u00a0Looks like it’s all coming together just as the season ends.\u200b\u00a0U13s Girls\u00a0Kites<\/strong> drew 2-2 with Rawcliffe in the league.\u00a0We were 2-0 up at one point and it\u00a0just shows the girls confidence now in that they were disappointed with a draw. U13s<\/strong> lost 5-0 away at Pannal Sports. Against a team that hasn’t lost a league game in 2 seasons we decided to give them a 4 goal start before we started playing after 15 minutes of the game.\u00a0We matched them in the rest of the game although we were not massively threatening up front.\u200b<\/p>\n

\u200bU16s<\/strong> completed their league season with an 8-0 victory against bottom of the table Harrogate\u00a0Railway Locos.\u00a0KDR opened the scoring after only 2 minutes when a perfectly flighted corner by Ryan Castelow was headed home by Rowan Bentley. Shortly afterwards, Kyle Mackinnon was very unlucky to see his shot hit the post and rebound along the goal line to safety.\u00a0After a number of other missed chances, Deighton’s second goal came when James O’Sullivan’s shot hit the post and Greg Moodie scored from the rebound. Greg then scored again with a header from Ryan’s corner. On the stroke of half-time, James fired a powerful shot from outside the penalty area into the roof of the net.<\/p>\n

The score stayed at 4-0 until after 17 minutes of the second half, Rowan volleyed a pass through the Railway defence and Josh Quinn finished with composure. Following this, Callum Unsworth scored from Josh’s neat pass into the box. Callum then provided assists for the final two goals – a corner floated to the far post for Kyle to score with a header and a cross across the box which Ryan finshed with a powerful shot across the Railway ‘keeper.\u00a0\u200bMan of the Match was Ryan Castelow with runner up being Henry Beanland\u200b.<\/p>\n

April 16th & 17th\u200b 2016\u200b<\/p>\n

U8s<\/strong> played Harrogate Railway on a glorious afternoon at Grange Park. The lads started slowly but were great overall., finishing with 3 wins and a draw.\u00a0U9s<\/strong> played away at Pannal Ash, drawing 2 and losing\u00a02.\u00a0We played well but keep giving away soft goals which is becoming a trend in recent weeks.\u00a0We were missing a couple of quality players which always makes a difference. U10s\u00a0Girls\u00a0<\/strong>played in the Scotton Gala, and\u00a0they were great! Three wins (against\u00a0Harrogate Railway\u00a0and\u00a0Tockwith, neither of whom have been beaten all season, and against\u00a0Scotton Scorchers) and a draw against\u00a0Pannal Ash. The draw\u00a0came after the break when the girls took advantage of the free cake and\u00a0biscuits. Within 5 mins they were 3-0 down but they came back strongly to level the game\u200b.<\/p>\n

U12\u200bs<\/strong> lost 3-0 to Pannal Sports in a closer game than the score line suggests. We were holding our own at 0-0 until a defensive error cost us a goal. We had our chances but we creep closer to a win\u00a0and the\u00a0effort from the boys\u00a0is clearly there. We lost 11-3 to the same opponents\u00a0earlier in the season so this\u00a0clearly signals\u00a0an improvement.\u200b\u200b\u00a0\u200b<\/p>\n

U16s<\/strong> didn’t have their scoring boots on and lost 1-3 at home against unbeaten (with a 100% record so far this season) Kirkstall Crusaders.\u00a0Kirkstall opened the scoring after only 4 minutes following a quick break and with the KDR defence unable to clear a bouncing ball, stand-in goalie Rowan Bentley was left with no chance from a one on one.\u00a0But Deighton battled back and were unfortunate when a rising shot from James O’Sullivan seemed destined for the top corner of the Kirkstall net only for the goalie to tip the ball round the post.<\/p>\n

KDR got their deserved equaliser in the 28th minute when neat passing between Josh Quinn and Kyle Mackinnon saw Josh released and from the edge of the box, he curled a powerful shot high into the net on the goalie’s near side.\u00a0Shortly afterwards, Tom Pearson put a perfectly flighted free kick into the box for Alex Diggle to head goalbound only to see the keeper palm the ball onto the far post – then with Josh Quinn following up, a goal seemed certain until the keeper somehow blocked the shot.In almost a repeat of that effort, another Tom Pearson free kick found it’s way to Sam Monaghan but he could only head straight at the Kirkstall goalie.<\/p>\n

After the half time break, Kirkstall had more of the possession and scored early in the second half when a failure by Deighton to clear the ball on the right of the penalty area allowed the Kirkstall forward into the box to score. KDR again responded well and a shot from Josh Quinn was palmed out by the keeper but James O’Sullivan was unlucky to see his shot from the rebound go wide.\u00a0Deighton went close yet again when Sam Monaghan latched onto a through ball only to see his curling shot hit the far post and go behind for a goal kick.\u00a0With KDR pressing for the equaliser, KIrkstall scored the final goal of the match with a long range shot into the top corner of the Deighton net.\u200b\u200b\u00a0Man of the Match went to Greg Moodie with runner up being stand-in goalie Rowan Bentley.<\/p>\n

April 9th & 10th\u200b 2016\u200b<\/p>\n

U9s\u00a0<\/strong>\u200bdrew three games\u00a0and narrowly lost one against Ilkley at a sunny Grange Park.\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b Both sides were well matched and either team might have come out on top.\u200b\u00a0U10s<\/strong> won one and lost one away at Boroughbridge, who are probably the strongest team in the league\u200b\u200b\u200b.\u200b\u200b\u200b\u00a0An interesting\u00a0day for the U11s<\/strong> who played 7 a side football\u00a0away at Beckwithshaw on the Rossett\u00a03G 5 a side pitches\u200b.\u200b Unfortunately we lost all four games.\u00a0\u200b<\/p>\n

\u200bU12s lost 10-2 at home to an extremely talented Horsforth side who maintained their unbeaten run for the season.\u200b We had some g\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200bood moments but made too many errors\u00a0aga\u200binst a side some level up from us.\u200b\u00a0A great result for the U13s\u200b\u200b Girl\u200b\u200bs<\/strong> who won their Cup semi-final against a\u00a0\u200bgood Rawcliffe team who have previously beaten us twice this season.\u200b U13s<\/strong> lost 3-2 at home to Pannal Sports Lions in a classic top of the table battle.\u200b\u200b\u200b The game could have gone either way but despite playing well it wasn’t our day.\u00a0\u200bU15s<\/strong> dominated possession and territory away\u00a0against\u00a0\u200bIlkley Juniors B but could only manage a 3-0 win; probably a consequence of a four week gap since\u00a0our last competitive match.<\/p>\n

April 2nd & 3rd\u200b 2016\u200b<\/p>\n

\u200bU7s<\/strong> won all four games against Beckwithshaw.\u00a0U9s<\/strong> played away at\u00a0Wigton Moor away and managed 2 wins, a\u00a0\u200bdraw and a defeat.\u00a0Bearing in mind we haven’t had many games recently they all put in a real shift and scored lots of very good goals. It’s worth mentioning that one player\u00a0scored all 6 goals in a game!\u00a0\u200bU10s Girls<\/strong>\u00a0played a couple of friendlies against Wetherby. A drawn game in which we played really well and should have won was followed by a convincing win.\u00a0U12s<\/strong> lost 3-1 away to a strong Harrogate Railway but gave a pleasing performance with many positives.\u200b<\/p>\n

March 19th & 20th 2016\u200b<\/p>\n

\u200bU7s<\/strong> played against Collingham, winning two games and losing one. We scored some excellent goals and played well in all three matches.\u00a0U10s<\/strong> played New Park Bulldogs. We only had 7 players so it was hard work. The boys played brilliantly and pulled off 2 wins, some really good team football and some cracking goals.\u00a0U11s Girls<\/strong> won against Goole Town in a very competitive league match. The girls played very well and scored the winner with 3 minutes to go.\u00a0A much changed team then played in the friendly and drew but we created lots of chances.\u00a0In both games the girls took lots of shots, which was pleasing as they had been shot shy in previous matches.\u00a0\u200bOn Saturday \u200bU11s<\/strong> played a 9\u00a0a\u00a0side friendly\u00a0\u200bagainst a Martin House League development team. It was a comfortable win and a good display given that some of the players were competing in this format for the first or second time. Sunday saw us return to the regular\u00a0\u200b7 a side league format. We recorded two wins, a draw and a defeat against a fast Ilkley side.<\/p>\n

U12s<\/strong> lost 6-3 to Harrogate Railway in a refreshingly spirited performance. At one stage we were\u00a04-1 down, clawed it back to 4-3 but then conceded two very soft goals. We also fielded a stand in keeper, so certainly an improvement on recent outings.\u00a0\u200b\u200b\u200bU13s<\/strong> lost 1-3 at home to Harrogate Railway,\u00a0one of our promotion rivals.\u00a0\u200bWe were far too open and conceded a goal from their goal kick – a\u00a0pass back to the\u00a0keeper was\u00a0charged down by their striker.\u00a0At the other end we had shots cleared off the line, hit the woodwork and missed when it looked easier to score.\u00a0U16s<\/strong> went out of the Maddison Cup at the semi-final stage but played well against a strong Harrogate Railway team who sit top of the Garforth U16s League.\u00a0Playing up the slope in the first half, Deighton played well but conceded two similar goals from through balls that Railway strikers were able to clip over the KDR keeper.\u00a0Thereafter, Deighton held on until the very last minute of the 40 when Railway scored from the penalty spot after a\u00a0coming together in the\u00a0area. However, in the second half KDR got the goal they deserved when a perfectly flighted free kick from the half way line by Sam Monaghan was knocked on by Alex Diggle for James O’Sullivan to score from close range.\u00a0Railway scored the final goal of the game following a break down the Deighton left. A\u00a01-4 defeat\u00a0but a very creditable performance.\u200b\u00a0U17s<\/strong> won 3-0 away at Ilkley Pumas\u00a0on a poor pitch against weak opposition.\u200b<\/p>\n

March 12th & 13th 2016\u200b<\/p>\n

\u200bU8s<\/strong> won all four matches matches against Clifford Ranger\u200bs at a gloriously sunny Grange Park.\u00a0U13s<\/strong> won 2-1 away at Wigton Moor. A very frustrating game\u00a0as the opposition didn’t have a single\u00a0shot on target;\u00a0their goal was a comedy own goal. \u00a0If we had our shooting boots on we would have scored a hatful.\u00a0U14s<\/strong> played their last game of the season and beat\u00a0Yorkshire Amateurs\u00a06-0 to guarantee promotion to League A.\u00a0Had we lost today, it is likely the team we beat would have been promoted, so quite a match and quite a\u00a0day. The\u00a0boys are\u00a0elated.\u200b<\/p>\n

February 27th & 28th 2016\u200b<\/p>\n

\u200bU8s<\/strong> won two and drew two matches against Pannal Ash at a gloriously sunny Grange Park.\u00a0U9s<\/strong> were away at Knaresbrough Celtic. This was our first game in a long time and it showed. We should have won the first game but it\u00a0finished level\u00a0and we\u00a0lost the other three matches.\u00a0With\u00a0the ball the lads looked good and played the passing game,\u00a0but without the ball we didn’t defend well and conceded some soft goals.\u200b\u00a0U11s\u00a0Girls\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u00a0<\/strong>Dragons<\/strong> lost to a very strong and physically bigger Stamford Bridge side.\u00a0We went behind to a harsh penalty and quickly conceded another but our girls fought back.\u00a0They worked really hard for each other once again. Great team spirit\u200b. U<\/strong>11\u200b\u200bs<\/strong> played Wigton Moor, who were arguably the best team in the league last season playing fast, skillful attacking football. In the autumn of 2014 we were trounced in all four matches. This time round we recorded a win, a draw and two defeats, despite missing a couple of players and suffering three bad injuries during play. Pleasing to see the progress we have made against a very strong side.<\/p>\n

U13s\u00a0Girls\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u00a0<\/strong>Kites<\/strong>\u00a0scored away at the runaway league leaders York RI, only the third team to do so this season, but were comprehensively beaten 7-1. \u200b\u200b\u200bU13s<\/strong> played their first 11\u00a0a\u00a0side match, in a friendly against Killinghall. We were 3-0 down with 15 minutes left but managed to pull it back to 3-3 and still have enough time to hit the bar chasing the winner.\u00a0U14s<\/strong> lost for the second weekend running, 3-2 away at Yorkshire Amateurs, despite being the better team and failing to convert a hatful of chances. The team remains top of the table.\u00a0U15s<\/strong> opponents Lawnswood cancelled at the 11th hour, unable to raise a team. As a result we were awarded a walkover victory and move up to second in the table.\u200b\u00a0\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200bU16s<\/strong> lost 6-0 away at Kirkstall Crusaders who maintained their 100% record this season.\u00a0KDR conceded in the 2nd minute but then managed to contain Kirkstall for the rest of the first half – albeit playing down the slope. But we conceded early again in the second half and then were mainly on the defensive thereafter.<\/p>\n

February 20th & 21st 2016\u200b<\/p>\n

\u200bU10s<\/strong> played a friendly match against a good team from\u00a0\u200bHaxby. A\u00a0combination of really good football, lots of examples of what we had been doing in training and a big heap of luck saw us come away with a draw,\u00a0a\u00a0win and a happy group of boys.\u00a0U11s<\/strong> had another great weekend, recording four\u00a0wins out of four games\u00a0away at Boroughbridge, a team\u00a0who on their day have matched us previously. Some of the\u00a0lads\u00a0were tested\u00a0in their less able positions and the\u00a0only goal conceded\u00a0was a dubious penalty.\u00a0\u200b<\/p>\n

\u200bU16s<\/strong> progressed to the semi-finals of the Maddison Cup with a 2-1 win against Pannal Sports at Grange Park.\u00a0KDR lost the toss and hence had to play into a strong headwind for the first half but in spite of this, opened the scoring after 18 minutes when Miles Lowson found Ryan Castelow on the left wing and the Pannal keeper could only palm the shot out to Josh Quinn who scored from close range.\u00a0The same combination of Miles and Ryan linked well shortly afterwards with a shot from Ryan across the keeper going narrowly wide of the far post.\u00a0After 35 minutes, a rapid break by KDR saw Josh play the ball through to Ryan who hit the top of the bar with his shot.<\/p>\n

With the wind behind them in the second half, Deighton often made good progress down the wings including a cross from Josh that almost went directly in, forcing the Pannal goalie to make a rushed clearance for a corner.\u00a0Midway through the half after a neat interchange of passes, Daniel Hodkinson scored with a powerful low shot from the edge of the area to give KDR a 2-0 lead.\u00a0Deighton generally seemed in control of the match until the last 15 minutes when a change to a defensive three by Pannal gave them the initiative and it came as no surprise when Pannal pulled a goal back.\u00a0The match ended with some frantic defending by KDR including a last minute save from goalie Saul Guilford who tipped a goal bound attempt onto the post for Alex Diggle to clear away.\u00a0\u200b\u200bMan of the match was Alex Diggle with runner up Saul Guilford and honourable mention to Dan Hodkinson.\u200b<\/p>\n

February 13th & 14th 2016\u200b<\/p>\n

\u200bU16s<\/strong> won a pulsating match 2-1 away at Otley.\u00a0KDR got off to the worst possible start as straight from the kick off, a through ball from the Otley midfield split the Deighton defence and keeper Ryan Castelow had no chance as Otley went 1-0 up.\u00a0The game had chances at both ends and KDR almost equalised after 10 minutes, when a shot from James O’Sullivan came back off the post and Josh Quinn followed up only to see the Otley goalie save his strike. Josh was then involved in a neat combination of passes with Greg Moodie but fired over when put through.\u00a0At the end of the half, Otley missed a great chance to increase their lead when after hitting the Deighton post, the Otley forward blazed the rebound well over the bar.<\/p>\n

\u200bKDR equalised early in the second half as Greg played a ball out to the left wing for Kyle Mackinnon to put a low cross into the 6 yard box which the Otley centre half could only bundle into his own net.\u00a0Shortly afterwards, Greg fired in a seemingly goal bound shot from the edge of the area only to see the Otley keeper pull off a world class flying save to push the ball around the post.\u00a0With the match increasingly end to end, Deighton took the lead with 3 minutes remaining when James passed to Jordan Nugent who put in a great cross that the Otley keeper could only palm out to Sam Monaghan who showed great composure to round a defender before firing the ball home.<\/p>\n

Otley were very fortunate to keep 11 players on the pitch when Josh Quinnn was hacked down after getting free from a defender on the right wing. The resultant free kick for KDR came to nothing but as the ball went back up the pitch it bobbled through the Deighton defence and as it looked certain that a goal bound shot from Otley would equalise, Miles Lowson was just able at full stretch to deflect the ball onto the post with Rowan Bentley clearing away the rebound.\u200b<\/p>\n

February 6th & 7th 2016\u200b<\/p>\n

U11s Girls\u00a0<\/strong>Dragons\u00a0<\/strong>had a fantastic win against Brayton Belles from Selby. They played magnificently as a team against very good opposition\u200b.\u00a0U11s<\/strong> played at home against Killinghall Nomads who were fairly strong last year. We recorded 3\u00a0wins and a draw. Three players got hat tricks. The wind was a nightmare though.\u00a0\u200b<\/p>\n

Many congratulations to our U13s Girls<\/strong> for their first ever league victory. After many months of near misses and ‘what could have beens’ the girls were all magnificent in their 2-1 victory away at Bishopthorpe White Rose. Having been beaten twice already this season by their opponents the girls were determined, measured and with no little skill came back from a goal down to turn it around. Jenny-May Moxon scored both goals and was player of the match. Captain Jess Flynn was exceptional again, \u00a0Poppy Ribbons was outstanding in defence and Isobel Laurie was on fire with her tackling. Vicky Hudson, Beth Horsfall and Jess Tully were at their determined best working the wings and not allowing the opposition time on the ball and with Evie Trapps continuing her development into a great goalkeeper they all worked together to propel the team to this maiden victory. Well done to all the girls and to coaches Rachel and Carl for a well deserved win.\u200b\u00a0U15s<\/strong> beat Ripon 5-2. We squandered so many chances, the\u00a0scoreline could have\/should have been double.\u200b\u00a0U17s<\/strong> beat Thackley 4-3 in a reversed fixture at Grange Park.\u00a0A great performance and deserved win against top of the league Thackley\u00a0who previously\u00a0hadn’t lost a game all season.\u200b<\/p>\n

\u200b\u200bU16s<\/strong> won 5-0 against Nidd Utd.\u00a0Nidd actually started the brighter of the teams and Deighton had to defend a number of early corners before Ryan Castelow broke with pace down the left wing, crossed into the Nidd penalty area and after a neat interchange of passes by KDR players, James O’Sullivan shot to score the opener.\u00a0\u200bSam Monaghan was unfortunate to see his snap shot come back off the post into the goalie’s hands but shortly before half time, a well placed through ball by James found Josh Quinn who neatly clipped the ball into the corner of the goal.\u00a0This was followed by another goal shortly after the start of the second half when Greg Moddie picked up the ball outside the Nidd box and fired a powerful shot over the goalie into the top of the net.\u00a0\u200bFifteen minutes later, a pass from Jordan Nugent into the box found Sam who was tripped by a Nidd defender – Sam picked himself up to score from the resultant penalty.\u00a0The last goal of the match came from an assist by Jordan which found substitute Alex Diggle who shot low across the keeper into the net.\u200b<\/p>\n

January 30th & 31st 2016\u200b<\/p>\n

U8s<\/strong> played for the first time this year away at\u00a0Knaresborough Celtic.\u00a0The lads did really well;\u00a0they have been desperate to play and it showed, with four good\u00a0wins out of four games.\u00a0In the first league\u00a0match since mid December for the U12s<\/strong>\u00a0we lost\u00a03-2\u00a0in\u00a0a close game at Pool. We gifted our opponents\u00a0a 3 goal start but battled back well and if we had a bit more time might well have forced an equaliser.\u00a0\u200bU13s<\/strong> won 5-3 at home against Ripon. In a\u00a0scrappy game the victory was\u00a0only sealed by a goal with the last kick of the game. All 3 goals conceded were a result of poor\u00a0defending\u200b.\u00a0\u200bU14s<\/strong> beat Wetherby for the 2nd time in 2 weeks, and by the\u00a0same\u00a0score, 3-0. We are top of the table at moment, but teams below us\u00a0have games in hand\u200b.\u00a0\u200bU15s<\/strong> beat\u00a0Lawnswood 15-0. A good\u00a0confidence\u00a0boost for the boys.<\/p>\n

\u200bA damp morning at Grange Park brought the return match for KDR U16s<\/strong> against league leaders Garforth. The last time these two met, Garforth came out on top 2-0. The pre match talk was “Only two goals last time boys, do what you have been doing in practice, pass with confidence and shoot whenever you get a chance”. KDR were dominant from the off,\u00a0 keeping a surprised Garforth pegged back – occasionally\u00a0they broke into the KDR half only for their\u00a0attempts to be snuffed out by a confident and strong\u00a0centre-back\u00a0pairing. Surely one of our shots would go in, “how long left ref?” only one minute in the first half and then it happened , a long ball from Alex Diggle found Ryan Castelow who slid the ball across the Garforth goalie : 1-0 and the KDR boys had their mojo.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Half time talk was “Great teamwork, great passing , confident play, just keep it up.” And so it was in the 2nd half, Josh Quinn scoring the next with a low shot to the near post – followed by a Sam Monaghan penalty after Ryan had been tripped in the box. Then the goal of the match (or month?) as Josh controlled Sam’s through ball and promptly fired a shot into the top corner. Next was James O’Sullivan who stole in behind the left back to score. Finally a neat short corner routine between Greg Moodie and Sam saw Sam’s shot deflected back to Greg who drilled the ball home. Towards the end, sadly a\u00a0spinning\u00a0curling ball just\u00a0got past the finger tips of Saul. 6-1. Great match marred by an injury to Luke Kilby that turned out to be a couple of broken toes after a fearless coming together.\u00a0Man of the match was James O’Sullivan for an\u00a0outstanding\u00a0performance on\u00a0the right wing, repeatedly winning the ball and crossing into the Garforth box.\u00a0<\/p>\n

January 23rd & 24th 2016\u200b<\/p>\n

U11s Girls<\/strong> lost to Thirsk Falcons in a league match. The word ‘rusty’\u00a0would best\u00a0describe the first 15 minutes when they found themselves well behind. Much better after that but Thirsk defended well. Really pleased how they adapted their style of play\u00a0to counter a good team and they battled right to the end.\u200b U1<\/strong>1s\u00a0played\u00a0Pannal Sports Tigers\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b, winning\u00a0three games\u00a0and somehow managed to lose the\u00a0one in which they had 80% of the possession.\u200b\u00a0U15s<\/strong> won away at Ripon 4-3.\u00a0\u00a0We were always in front but found ourselves repeatedly\u00a0pegged back until 10 minutes from the end.\u200b<\/p>\n

U16s<\/strong> won 3-1 away against Ilkley Blues.\u00a0Although Deighton had the majority of the early possession, it was Ilkley who took the lead when a well hit free kick flew into the bottom corner of the net leaving KDR goalie Saul Guilford with no chance to save.\u00a0But within 10 minutes, Deighton were level when Josh Quinn cut in from the right wing and hit a perfectly placed left foot shot from 25 yards into the top of the Ilkley goal.\u00a0KDR began the second half brightly and took the lead when James O’Sullivan beat two Ilkley defenders on the wing and fired a cross into the 6 yard box which an unfortunate Ilkley defender could only deflect into his own net.\u00a0Shortly afterwards Tom Pearson picked the ball up in midfield, dribbled to the edge of the Ilkley penalty area and scored with a powerful shot.\u00a0Deighton couldn’t convert other chances to score, most noticeably when Luke Kilby unleashed a long range half volley which flew just past the top corner of the Ilkley goal.\u00a0Man of the match went to Tom Pearson with the runner up being Alex Diggle.\u200b<\/p>\n

January 9th & 10th 2016\u200b<\/p>\n

U13s Girls Kites<\/strong> lost to league leaders York RI but the girls improvement from their first meeting on day 1 of the season was phenomenal, lots of praise from the opposition coaches for distance travelled since September.\u00a0U16s<\/strong> won 8-0 at home against Harrogate Railway Locos.\u00a0Deighton started slowly and goals from Ryan Castelow and Luke Kilby were only as a result of some unlucky defending by Railway. Thereafter, with Miles Lowson and Kyle Mackinnon often combining well down the left wing, two more goals were scored by Tom Pearson\u00a0to give KDR a 4-0 lead at half time.\u00a0After coming on from the bench, Sam Monaghan made a big impact with a second half hat trick including a perfectly placed long range curling shot that went in off the post. Tom Pearson scored from a corner to complete his hat trick.\u00a0Man of the Match was\u00a0Sam Monaghan with runner up being Kyle Mackinnon.\u200b<\/p>\n

December 5th and 6th 2015<\/p>\n

U16s<\/strong> won 11-2 away at Leeds Maccabi. KDR started well and were 3-0 up after only twelve minutes.\u00a0Miles Lowson scored the first with a close range header from a Luke Kilby corner, Tom Pearson got the second with an accurate shot into the bottom corner of the Maccabi\u00a0net and Alex Diggle scored the third with a neat turn on the edge of the area followed by a shot inside the post.\u00a0James O’Sullivan then added another two goals before half time, a header from a Tom Pearson free\u00a0kick and a shot from distance.In the second half, Josh\u00a0Quinn ran onto a through ball to round the keeper and score and then shortly afterwards, Josh crossed\u00a0for Ryan Castelow to add another. A neat passing move between Kyle Mackinnon and Rowan Bentley set Ryan up for his second before James completed his hat trick with the best goal of the match, a powerful shot from outside the area which flew into the top corner.\u00a0Daniel Hodkinson and Toby Giddings then completed\u00a0the scoring for Deighton.\u00a0An experimental change in the KDR defensive formation\u00a0resulted \u00a0in Maccabi getting the final two goals of the match.Man of the match was Tom Pearson with runner up being James O’Sullivan – mention in dispatches to Luke Kilby for a series of accurate corners.\u200b<\/p>\n

November 21st and 22nd 2015<\/p>\n

U9s<\/strong> came agonisingly\u00a0close to an u\u200b\u200bndefeated weekend, with 3 wins and a very close defeat\u200b.\u200b It was very pleasing to see both mixed ability teams working well.\u00a0U13s<\/strong> drew 3-3 away at Leeds City. We went 2-0 down, a\u00a0little\u200b unfortunately\u00a0as one goal came directly after a slip from a defender. Got it back to 2-2\u00a0at half-time and took the lead early in the second half but couldn’t hold on for the win.\u200b\u00a0U14s<\/strong> development team dominated Beckwithshaw on Saturday\u00a0winning 4-1, though the result underplays how much on top we were. On Sunday w\u200be played an unbeaten Wigton side at Grange Park.\u00a0At the start of the weekend five teams were level on points at the top of the league. The visitors\u00a0went up 2-0 against the run of play, but\u00a0we came back and ended up winning 6-3, with\u00a0probably our best performance for two seasons.\u00a0\u200bU15s<\/strong>\u200b beat\u00a0Wigton Moor\u200b 2-1 in a tight match at Grange Park. We trailed\u00a0\u200b1-0 for 60 minutes but\u00a0the boys finished strongly and deserved the win.\u200b\u00a0U17s<\/strong> lost 6-1 to league leaders Thackley.\u00a0The lads battled really hard and were the better team in the\u00a0second half against a very good side.\u00a0Thackley deserved the win but we hit the post twice, had one attempt cleared on the line and really should have had two penalties.<\/p>\n

U16s<\/strong>\u00a0beat Bedale Bees 8-1 away.\u00a0After going a goal down in only the 3rd minute, Deighton were 3-1 ahead by half time thanks to a hat trick of powerful and accurate long range shots from Sam Monaghan.\u00a0In the second half, Sam battled through the Bedale defence to set up Ryan Castelow to score. Two headed goals from KDR corners then followed – the first scored by Rowan Bentley from a Ryan Castelow corner and the second scored by Alex Diggle from a Luke Kilby corner. Having had two assists from Josh Quinn in the first half, Sam Monaghan then returned the favour by putting a long ball through to Josh who neatly rounded the keeper to score. Thomas Pearson completed the scoring for Deighton in the last minute with a perfectly placed free kick into the top corner of the Bedale net.\u00a0Man of the match went to Sam Monaghan with runner up being Luke Kilby.\u200b<\/p>\n

November 14th and 15th 2015<\/p>\n

U11s Girls Dragons<\/strong> beat a good Tockwith team in their league match. Our younger girls enjoyed but lost the subsequent 10 minute friendly.\u200b\u00a0U13s Girls\u00a0Kites<\/strong> played lovely\u00a0competitive\u00a0football\u00a0against a physical Copmanthorpe team but lost 4-1. We are still awaiting our first win but their passing football is very good to watch.\u200b<\/p>\n

All other games this weekend were postponed due to waterlogged pitches.<\/p>\n

November 7th & 8\u200bth 2015<\/p>\n

Congratulations to the U7s<\/strong>, who enjoyed their first friendly matches against Collingham\u00a0at Grange Park on Saturday, winning 3 out of 4 games and scoring 11 goals.\u00a0The U9s<\/strong> played away at Beckwithshaw Saints on astroturf. Some good results across the two mixed ability teams in both games, with 2 wins, a draw and a defeat. Had it not been\u00a0for some soft goalkeeping coupled with two own goals we could well have avoided that single defeat.<\/p>\n

U14s<\/strong> beat Bedale 3-2 at Grange Park\u00a0to go joint top\u200b of the league (along with 4 other teams in a league of 7). The result was overshadowed by a broken arm for one of the boys, making it now\u00a03 broken arms in the squad\u200b.\u200b\u200b\u200b\u00a0U16s<\/strong> won 8-0 against Nidd Utd at Grange Park. Deighton were given the perfect start in only the 2nd minute by Miles Lowson who scored with an accurate lob of the keeper from a Toby Giddings throw in. Sam Monaghan was then influential in the next 4 goals before half time, scoring two and providing two assists with a long ball for Ryan Castelow and a well flighted corner for a powerful header by Alex Diggle. In the second half, Ryan scored again before his low cross forced an own goal from the\u00a0Nidd keeper. Finally, Kyle Mackinnon’s run into the box earned a penalty from\u00a0which Alex Diggle scored.\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u00a0U17s<\/strong> won 5-3 away at local rivals Wetherby in a relatively uneventful derby, other than the 8 goals, a\u00a0penalty save and a sending off for the opposition.\u00a0The lads were superb again today.\u200b<\/p>\n

October 24th & 25th 2015<\/p>\n

U10\u200bs<\/strong> had a match against stronger opposition this week against Boroughbridge. A good performance resulted in a victory\u00a0and a\u00a0defeat\u200b. Our first loss of the season so not bad going.\u00a0\u200bU13s<\/strong> won 2-1 at home against Leeds City. We didn’t play particularly well, and the opposition were the better side but we ground out the result. We are now joint top of the league,\u00a0although the other team has two games in hand.\u00a0\u200bA much better performance than of late for the\u00a0U15s<\/strong> but we\u00a0still lost 4 \u20131 to Pannal Ash.\u200b\u00a0A harsh result.\u200b<\/p>\n

October 17th & 18th 2015<\/p>\n

U8s<\/strong> played Wigton Moor at home, winning 3 games and losing 1. Delighted with them today, they worked really hard and were all on good form.\u200b\u00a0U11s Girls<\/strong>\u00a0lost for the first time in the league\u00a0away at Wiggington Grasshoppers. It was the flattest performance of the season.\u00a0The friendly team played really well but they too went down\u200b to a defeat.\u00a0U11s<\/strong> played hard fought matches\u00a0away at Wetherby. Squad rotation means we left a couple of key players out, and a\u00a0head on collision left both teams\u00a0a player down\u00a0after just\u00a0five minutes. We lost three and\u00a0drew one.<\/p>\n

\u200b\u200bU12s<\/strong> won 8-1 away at Wigton Moor.\u00a0U13s<\/strong> won 4 – 0 away at Knaresborough Celtic. \u00a0A very solid team performance and we\u00a0could even get away with missing a penalty from our normally reliable top scorer.\u200b\u00a0U14s\u00a0<\/strong>beat Beckwithshaw 7-2 in a friendly match on Saturday,\u00a0and strolled past Pannal Sports on Sunday. The score was 2-0 but we could have had five or six more if we understood the dimensions of the net.\u00a0U15s<\/strong>\u00a0lost\u00a0to Wetherby for the second weekend running, going down 5\u00a0\u20131.\u00a0U16s<\/strong> lost 5-2 away at top of the table Knaresborough but the match was much closer than the scoreline suggests; particularly as KDR were without both\u00a0usual choices for goalkeeper.\u00a0Deighton\u00a0took the lead with a perfectly placed free kick from Tom Pearson only for Knaresborough to score the next\u00a0three goals.\u00a0KDR\u00a0got one back\u00a0on the stroke of half-time when Luke Kilby scored following a through ball from James O’Sullivan.\u00a0\u200bIn the second half\u00a0Deighton\u00a0had the majority of possession but just couldn’t convert any of half a dozen clear scoring opportunities. Knaresborough scored twice from the few chances they had.\u00a0Man of the Match was Dan Hodkinson with runner up being Tom Pearson.\u00a0U17s<\/strong> drew 2-2 at home to Wetherby. Very proud of the lads today.\u00a0In a feisty affair we were two down at half time but pulled it back in the second half. We created lots of chances and with better decision making in the final third should have won comfortably. The Wetherby keeper was probably their man of the match.<\/p>\n

October 10th & 11th 2015<\/p>\n

A good day for the U9s<\/strong> at home against our local rivals Wetherby. Our two sides were of mixed ability and both managed a win. The remaining games included a hard fought draw\u00a0and a defeat.\u00a0\u200bOverall it was great to see so many different players getting on the score sheet and both teams coming away with a win. Another solid performance from the U10s<\/strong> with two wins against Pannal Ash.\u00a0Some really mature football played today from all the players.\u00a0\u200b<\/p>\n

\u200bU13s Girls\u00a0Kites<\/strong> just keep getting better and better in their first league season. They were unlucky not to come away from Bishopthorpe White Rose with at least a point.\u00a0Playing on a poor pitch KDR responded well to going a goal behind. Beth Horsfall equalised from a corner, which was quickly followed by \u00a0a lovely solo goal from Jess Flynn, beating the keeper at the near post. Evie Trapps was sensational in goal making a number of great saves in an entertaining first half.\u00a0Bishopthorpe equalised early in the second half as the game ebbed and flowed. Vicky made some good runs down the wing and battled back to help the defence as Bishopthorpe were more attacking in the second half but Poppy and Emma were resolute in defence. Then from a speculative long range Jess Flynn shot Jess Tully pounced when the goalkeeper spilt it. The goal was just reward for a determined strikers performance form Jess.\u00a0Bishopthorpe equalised in the last 10 minutes when Evie was very unfortunate that she made a fantastic save from a rasping shot but the power in the shot carried it over the line. Then as the Kites tired Bishopthorpe scored twice in the last 4 minutes including a last minute penalty to snatch victory in a very absorbing and competitive game.\u200b<\/p>\n

U12s<\/strong> played away against a very good Knaresborough side and lost 5-2 but the game was closer than score line suggests.\u00a0A pleasing performance given a few players were poorly.\u00a0U13s<\/strong> played Knaresborough Celtic at home and we won 7-2. A great performance especially in the first half where we turned around 5-0 up. It is a while since the U15s<\/strong>\u00a0kicked off at 10:00 and it showed. 4-0 down after 20 mins but gradually we woke up to eventually lose 6\u20131 to Wetherby.\u200b\u00a0U16s<\/strong> won 7-3 at home against Ilkley Blues.\u00a0In an entertaining match, Ilkley took the lead after only 4 minutes with\u00a0a header from a corner but Ryan Castelow soon\u00a0equalised for KDR with a strong run and shot.\u00a0The best goal of the match saw Deighton take the lead as Callum Unsworth\u00a0played an accurate ball from defence to James O’Sullivan who showed great pace down the wing and\u00a0passed to Josh Quinn who\u00a0then played in Sam Monaghan to score and complete a fine flowing move.\u00a0Two\u00a0Ilkley corners produced two further goals and despite playing the better football, KDR were 2-3 down.\u00a0However Deighton then dominated\u00a0the second half\u00a0with\u00a0four more goals from Sam Monaghan and one from Tom Pearson to finish the match comfortably. Man of the Match went to Sam Monaghan with James O’Sullivan as runner up.\u200b<\/p>\n

October 3rd & 4th 2015<\/p>\n

U8s<\/strong> played in an\u00a0Old Firm clash, away at\u00a0Wetherby Tigers.\u00a03 sides played\u00a0fabulous football, with\u00a0four wins and\u00a0two draws.\u200b\u00a0A good weekend for the U10s<\/strong> with\u00a02 wins away at Kirkstall Crusaders.\u00a0They were playing a weaker team but they put together some great football.\u200b\u00a0U11s Girls<\/strong>\u00a0continued their unbeaten start to the season with a draw against\u00a0Thirsk Falcons\u200b\u200b\u200b.<\/p>\n

U13s Girls<\/strong>\u00a0scored their first league goal and were unlucky to lose 3-1 to Rawcliffe. The\u00a0third goal\u00a0came with the last kick of the game when the girls were pressing for an equaliser.\u200b\u00a0U13s<\/strong> continued their fine inconsistent form. Rubbish last week, brilliant\u200b\u00a0this week, winning 5-0 away at Ilkley. Two away matches,\u00a0 2 wins and no goals conceded.\u00a0Our home form on the other hand is shocking\u200b.\u00a0U14s<\/strong> were\u00a0totally outplayed by Wigton in the County Cup, losing 0-8.\u200b<\/p>\n

September 26th & 27th 2015<\/p>\n

U9s<\/strong> were away at Ripon City Panthers. We won a\u00a0fantastic opening game in\u00a0which we truly dominated possession and the final score could have been even higher. We then seemed to take our foot off the gas\u00a0and lost\u00a0the second game.\u00a0Disappointingly, our weaker B team lost both games but put up a good fight and in all honesty the score lines didn’t reflect the game play.\u00a0Overall lots of good play but we missed a few of our stronger players who were unavailable.\u00a0U11s<\/strong> played Pannal at home today. First try out for new player combinations for our two teams, more like an A and\u00a0B team\u00a0after 3 seasons of mixed teams. One team won both games, the other had 60% of the play, hit the posts several times, drew some excellent saves from their goalie but lost.\u00a0We were without our second keeper this week though.\u00a0Very pleased with the boys spirit today and there were some excellent team and individual goals scored.<\/p>\n

\u200bWearing their new kit\u00a0(thanks Sant’Angelo), U11s Girls<\/strong> looked and played their part in a very enjoyable and successful away day. In an entertaining and even game which ebbed and flowed Scotton took the league but Francesca Moss levelled after a lovely through pass from Ciara Streatfield. Some great pressuring from Kate Purvis led to another opportunity for Francesca which she finished with great poise. Scotton hit back and the teams went in level at half time. The second half was very open as both teams went for the win. Lauren Dawson was exceptional again in defence and with Olivia Delaney and captain Isabelle Parkin they repelled Scotton attacks. Poppy Hall made some important saves when the scores were level but KDR Dragons had chances as well and Lucy Foster was unlucky as their keeper made a great save. Martha Rayner had another excellent box to box game making some timely tackles and some excellent attacking runs and KDR Dragons went ahead when player of the match Francesca scored her hat trick – proving to her manager why he was wrong to start her on the bench! Ursula Holland came on to provide stability to the midfield and the game was won when the Scottton goalkeeper couldn’t hold Ciara’s fierce shot.\u00a0The friendly game was equally competitive. With 15 available players to choose from all the girls had an opportunity for game time. KDR Dragons narrowly lost the second match with Poppy Hall and Francesca scoring our goals.\u00a0\u200b<\/p>\n

U12s<\/strong> lost 11-3 at Pannal Sports.\u00a0A slow start resulted in being 3 down in first 15 mins. We clawed it back to 3-2 before half time but then didn’t push on. Too many players were\u00a0expecting an easy game after the first two fixtures.\u00a0A useful learning curve on a day bad for football.\u00a0U13s Girls\u00a0Kites<\/strong> were outstanding this week. Despite having to play 6 against 7 (plus 2 subs) for the entire match due to injury, they lost only due to numbers and fatigue but played out of their socks!\u00a0U13s<\/strong> are currently consistently inconsistent.\u00a0We played well last week so this week we played poorly. Playing Wigton Moor, a team we beat 7-1 last year, we didn’t start and were 2\u00a0down in about 3 minutes. Got it back to 2-2 and then again conceded 2 goals before\u00a0half time. In the second half every time we got a goal back we conceded almost straight away and lost 4-6.\u00a0\u200b\u200b\u200bU\u200b14s<\/strong>\u200b played well but lost 2-1 at Bedale. Their manager conceded that we were the better team and he was right. Funny old game.\u00a0U16s<\/strong> picked up their first 3 points of the season thanks to\u00a0Leeds Maccabi cancelling\u00a0at late\u00a0notice so we were awarded\u00a0a\u00a0walkover win\u200b\u200b.<\/p>\n

September 19th & 20th 2015<\/p>\n

\u200b\u200bU8s<\/strong> started their season today at home against\u00a0Ripon. We played 3 games initially, resulting in two\u00a0KDR wins, and\u00a0a Ripon win.\u00a0The teams were then reshuffled to even things up. In the second round of matches we won\u00a0the encounter between the two strongest sides. The lads were fantastic, they played with a lot of maturity covering for each other, when needing to go out of position. The\u00a0other two\u00a0games resulted\u00a0in victories.\u00a0To summarise: 5 wins and a loss, and a\u00a0very happy coaching team.\u200b\u00a0\u200bU10s<\/strong> recorded a brace of wins at\u00a0home to New Park. It could have been a lot closer but with some brilliant goalkeeping and goalmouth recoveries we managed to keep two clean sheets. Good all\u00a0round performances.\u200b\u00a0U11s<\/strong>\u00a0were away at Knaresborough Celtic. Excellent high tempo passing football from both teams, a joy to watch.\u00a0Two wins, two defeats, but wonderful team spirit and really encouraging signs again from our lads.<\/p>\n

A young U13s Girls<\/strong> team\u00a0lost 11-0 at Copmanthorpe,\u00a0but the result is very harsh as the game was much closer than the score suggests.\u200b\u00a0U13s<\/strong> won 4-0 away at Ripon. A really good performance from the lads today\u200b.\u00a0U16s<\/strong>\u00a0played some bright and entertaining football but were somewhat unfortunate to lose 2-0 away at Garforth Rangers.\u00a0Deighton had the majority of the possession in the first half but there were few clear chances for either team.\u00a0The second half was more even as Garforth had the benefit\u00a0playing down the slope –\u00a0KDR conceded twice, the first\u00a0when our goalie was impeded in a goalmouth scramble and the second when a\u00a0shot\u00a0flew into the bottom corner of the net.\u00a0\u200bSo a defeat but an improved peformance compared to last week – encouraging signs.\u00a0\u200b<\/p>\n

September 12th & 13th 2015<\/p>\n

The U9s<\/strong> A side managed a draw and a narrow defeat against Pannal Sports. The B side lost both games but if it wasn’t for some suspect defending it could have been very different as both teams were great going forward.\u00a0\u200bA great start to the season from the U10s<\/strong> with a win over Kirkstall. 2 goals in the first few minutes and the best football they have played with mature passing and play. It could have been double figures if it wasn’t for a storming game by the opposition keeper.\u00a0We compete\u00a0in the single squad league so we\u00a0played a second friendly match to give some more boys a run.\u00a0 A well balanced game ended\u00a0all square with some really good football played.<\/p>\n

U11s Girls Dragons\u00a0<\/strong>made history (or should that be herstory?) on Saturday when they became the first female KDR team to win a competitive league match, beating\u00a0Poppleton Tigers with a very assured performance. Francesca Moss and Martha Rayner terrorised the Tigers’ defence in a first half completely dominated by KDR. With a strong midfield of captain Isabelle Parkin playing a true box to box role\u00a0and Ciara Streatfield and Lily Wenn ably assisting the attacking threat from the wings the team pressed forward and were rewarded when Francesca scored two first half goals. Martha scored a fantastic solo goal just after the restart and then the team showed their intelligence as they adapted to a stronger second half display from their opponents and defended in a calm, organised way. Lauren Dawson and Olivia Delaney, both playing their first ever game for the club, were magnificent but the whole team defended as a unit and protected goalkeeper Poppy Hall who was excellent in her distribution. The score did not flatter the U11 Dragons and it was a well deserved maiden victory. Player of the match:\u00a0Lauren Dawson\u200b<\/p>\n

U11s<\/strong> were away at Ripon, a team we should be competitive against. They have moved to an A and a B system, so\u00a0for the first two matches of the season we’re sticking to last year’s mixed teams. Frustratingly we lost both games\u00a0to the A team, although they were competitive matches\u200b. The B team was a reasonable side with a good keeper;\u00a0 we won both games with our first hat trick of the season.\u00a0U12s<\/strong>\u00a0debut match at 9 a side\u00a0level produced a winning start with an outstanding\u00a010-2 victory away at Ripon.\u00a04 goals from Jake Parkin\u00a0(captain and centre half!), 3 from star forward Quinn Garrity, a brace for dazzling winger Keenan Park with Joe Kusinski also joining in the scoring party.\u00a0A real joy to watch today.\u00a0U13s Girls<\/strong>\u00a0started their league careers this weekend with a home game against York RI.\u00a0Our opponents\u00a0won the\u00a0league and cup double for the\u00a0last 3 seasons, have been playing together since they were 7, and are\u00a0the\u00a0best club in league by a country mile. They\u00a0beat us 16-0,\u00a0but split up that was 14-0 in the first half and\u00a02-0 in the\u00a0second, and our girls kept\u00a0their heads up and attacked throughout the match.\u00a0U13s<\/strong> were highly frustrating. Rather\u00a0like Aston Villa at Leicester we were cruising 2-0 at half time and basically didn’t turn up for the\u00a0second half and lost 3-2\u200b.\u00a0U15s<\/strong>\u00a0played Knaresborough at Thistle Hill and in an entertaining game in the sun emerged victorious 4 \u20132. The game never quite got away from them. 2-0 to\u00a0KDR,\u00a0then 2-1, 3-1, 3-2 and finally 4-2. Chances galore either end. Just our day.\u200b<\/p>\n

U16s<\/strong>\u00a0squandered\u00a0a two goal lead to lose 3-5 at home to Knaresborough\u00a0Celtic.\u00a0Deighton started by far the brighter of the teams and scored twice in the first fifteen\u00a0minutes – Dan Hodkinson with a powerful\u00a0shot from 20 yards that flew in just under the crossbar and then Josh Quinn showed great control to receive an excellent long ball from Callum Unsworth and lob the Knaresborough keeper.\u00a0KDR looked to have the game under control but three Knaresborough goals in quick succession just before\u00a0half time turned the game around completely.\u00a0Deighton got going again in the second half when Sam Monaghan\u00a0equalised with a well taken penalty drilled into the roof of the net, but then Knaresborough\u00a0again\u00a0responded with two further goals to win the match.\u00a0Man of the Match went to\u00a0Sam Monaghan with runner up being Callum Unsworth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
