Football Returns for Bromsgrove Sporting

After over 3 months of lockdown, football has finally returned to the Victoria Ground. First team manager, Brendan Kelly arranged a practice match against Alcester Town back on Tuesday 13th April but owing to COVID restrictions, spectators had to be excluded.

Sporting gained a 3 - 1 win against gutsy opponents from the Midland Football League Division Two who had the advantage of being a bit more in practice having played a couple of matches. Sporting led 2 - 0 at halftime thanks to strikes by Jason Cowley and Mikey Taylor. Alcester got one back early in the second half but Taylor with his second sealed a victory for the home team. All being well the unofficial Red Recruitment Cup will get completed at the end of May with Sporting playing Redditch United on Saturday 22nd May and Alvechurch on Bank Holiday Monday (31st May). Both games are away with a 3:00 p.m. kick-off. Admittance to supporters will depend on COVID rules when the matches take place. Meanwhile Bromsgrove Sporting Colts have also been back in action with teams from the under 7s to under 18s all playing again. Bromsgrove Sporting Veterans resumed their Photos by season winning all three Chris Jepson matches so far but no such luck for the Ladies team who lost a friendly against Walsall Wood 3 - 1 and went out of the County Cup 3 - 0 to Droitwich Spa. There are vacancies in the women’s squad for next season for anybody interested in playing for the team. by Phil Baker All the latest news about Bromsgrove Sporting Football Club can be found on website: www.bromsgrovesporting.co.uk Any enquiries can be sent to hello@bromsgrovesporting.co.uk
