Heslerton Under-15s (blue) in action against Copmanthorpe

Heslerton Under-15s welcomed Copmanthorpe to a cold and wet Sands Lane on Sunday in their York and District Youth League clash.

A depleted Heslerton team battled away in the first half and had their goalkeeper Malachey Kendrew to thank for keeping the score down to 2-0 at the break.

The second half started with Heslerton piling on the pressure and pulling a goal back from the spot through Oscar Webb, however legs began to tire and Copmanthorpe scored two more goals again to seal victory.

Heslerton man of the match went to debutant Tom Hirst with a special mention to Will Mackley for his constant work-rate.

Seamer Under-12s claimed a 3-2 victory in their Scarborough & District Minor League top-of-the-table clash at home to POMFS Under-12s League title rivals Scalby.

The visitors took the lead through Ryan Kaabi, against the run of play.

The lead did not last long though as a good move from Seamer saw Albie Lawton silde home the leveller.

Lawton then doubled his tally midway through the half, with some good saves from both goalkeepers maintaining that scoreline until the interval.

Harry Atkins made it 3-1 midway through the second half to Seamer with a half-volley looping over the keeper for his first goal of the season.

Several more good saves from both keepers kept out some strong shots until one minute from time when Marley Pickard held off the Seamer defenders to coolly slot home Scalby’s second.

The away side nearly snatched a point with last kick of the game when they hit the post and Noah Salt cleared the ball off the line.

Isaac Fletcher and Noah Salt shared the Seamer man of the match award.
