On Easter Sunday Carterton FC held their
annual Easter Funday, which also included the official opening of their
new stand, match day toilets and mini soccer storeroom. The day started
off with a friendly game of football between Carterton's Ladies and
U15's Girls, which was very well contested and finished with the scores
level at 2 - 2. An Easter Egg hunt was held for the youngsters and
before the start of the second game, which was to be our annual
Chairman's Select XI v our U16's.
The new stand and building were officially
opened. Carterton's Chairman said "this day has been long in coming, it
is a culmination of a lot of people putting in a lot of hard work over
two years to raise the £45000 required to allow all this to come to
fruition. I would like to take this opportunity to them all, along with
the help of the Oxfordshire Football Association and the financial
support of the Football Foundation and Carterton Town Council.
As in the previous 3 years, the U16's proved
to good for the Select XI and ran out 5 - 1 winners. There's always next
year!

On Thursday 1st April Carterton FC
entertained two touring schools football teams from Mafikeng, North West
Province, South Africa.
Mafikeng, were touring
the South East of England and were looking for a couple games of
football, Carterton were able to host them and played two games
consecutively with our U15's kicking off at 5.30, followed by our U16's
at 7.30. Though the weather was very English, wet and windy! The South
Africans thoroughly enjoyed their visit and the football. Both games
were well contested and played in a good spirit. Though both scorelines
flattered Carterton, the experience for all the players was great,
enjoying two completely different cultures and styles of football.
