U14A TSS 15 - BBC 24<br />
ROUND 9 REPORTS V BBC<br />
Buoyed by an improved performance and first victory last week, the A’s started the game<br />
against BBC with confidence and flare. Some great team play saw the visitors skip out to<br />
a lead late in the half which they held going into half time. A very passionate halftime<br />
speech from all three coaches seemed to lift the visitors but unfortunately the BBC attack<br />
stepped up a few gears in the 2 nd half and ran over 2 tries within 5 minutes to leave TSS<br />
stunned. Despite the setback TSS finished the regular season showing glimpses of a side<br />
that will not be pushed around next year. There were moments throughout the season of<br />
sheer brilliance and also frustration; experiences which will make this team a much<br />
stronger, tight knit unit heading into the future.<br />

U14B TSS 22 – BBC 33<br />
The B’s started strongly against BBC and looked a force to be reckoned with in the final<br />
game of the season. But as has proved the case throughout the season, a strong start<br />
doesn’t always equate to a victory. As the match went on little mistakes again cost the visitors<br />
dearly with BBC scoring off a number of Southport errors. The boot of Josh Flatley<br />
kept the visitors in the game but the attacking strength of BBC proved too much for TSS<br />
today. A mixed season certainly, but one which has been character building and will help<br />
shape and define this team for the 2014 season.<br />

U14C TSS 19 - BBC 26<br />
If there were 5 more minutes in this game TSS would have come from behind to snatch a<br />
draw. Unfortunately being down 19 – 0 at halftime meant the visitors left themselves with<br />
too much to do too late in the game. The C’s looked lost early in the1st half with wave after<br />
wave of BBC raids proving too much for TSS. The half time reprieve could not have<br />
come sooner and the coach’s message couldn’t have been blunter. With a 2 nd half that<br />
harked back to the remarkable comeback game against Churchie, TSS began to play<br />
more consistently and began to string a few points together. Unfortunately it was too little<br />
too late but there are many positives to take out of the season which will help this squad<br />
in coming years.<br />

U14D TSS 41 - BBC 10<br />
After only 15 minutes the 14 D’s were up 29 – 0 against BBC who were destined to<br />
have a long day at the office. This side has played extremely well all year and is no surprise<br />
they have been awarded the most successful team in the U14 age group. Mitch<br />
Backler scored a hat trick today adding to a list of hat trick try scorers from this team<br />
this season. Another fantastic team try came as a cross field kick found a flying Joel<br />
Shields who scored late in the 2 nd half as TSS finished the season in style winning 41 –<br />
