Results of the semi finals were as follows: -
Raynes Park 0 - 2 Kingston
Morden 4 - 1 Selsdon
Final Results
Morden 4 - 1 Kingston
Both teams tried to play good football from the start and were passing the ball around like two very good teams, but Morden took the lead early on with a well worked period of play.
The goal seemed to stun Kingston who were then hit with another two goals before half time as they struggled to get out of there own half. The second half started well for Kingston who seemed to have a renewed purpose as they started to put the Morden defence under some pressure this resulted in a goal for Kingston early in the second half. But the new found hope was short lived as Morden once again showed great strength and composure to seal the game with their fourth goal.
There was no way back for Kingston after that although they had a penalty claim turned down by the referee. Morden finished the match strong and ran out well deserved winners of the National Little League Cup competition.

Regrettably we have had to cancel the Girls National Tournament this year as there were only entries from West Sutton, Morden and Carshalton.
This is a great shame after such a well attended Tournament last year.

The NEC believe that much of the ethos the F.A. are proposing is already in place within the little league organisation. As the concept of little league is to provide football for boys and girls of all abilities and we already provide flexible friendly competitions.
We have also invited a guest speaker from the FA to the National Little League AGM to give us all more details.

We have organised an ‘in house’ Level 1 FA Coaching Course for little league managers/assistants.
The course is being run by a qualified/FA Approved Coach and each successful candidate will obtain the FA Level 1 Coaching qualification.
The course will take place on 3 consecutive Sundays from 9 am until 5 pm: - 9th, 16th & 23rd October, plus a couple of evenings to the Emergency Aid and Child Protection Workshops.
Tea/coffee will be provided but candidates will need to bring their own packed lunches.
It will be based at Sutton United FC, Gander Green Lane , Sutton with practical exercises on nearby Collingwood Rec. It will be run by a coach very experienced in youth/children’s football who has run this course many times before.
The standard price for this course is £150 but we have negotiated a reduction in price to £120. 00. We will ask each candidate to pay the negotiated full price to ensure commitment to attending all sessions. We will then be claiming back 50% from the NEC for those that complete the course and agree to the terms of acceptance.

A new "Parents Guide" leaflet is now available supplied free of charge by the NEC.
email dennisjones15@btinternet.com
Aimed at both new and existing parents, the colourful leaflet is intended to encourage sporting behaviour and support from parents. Leagues may like to issue it to all their parents at the start of the season - perhaps slipping a copy inside each fixture list, or accompanying the Code of Conduct.

Little League Football fully supports the FA Respect Programme.
Respect is The FA's programme of activities to combat unacceptable behaviour in our game at every level.
The programme will be implemented in professional and grassroots football, and encompasses not only respect towards match officials, but also the conduct of overly-competitive coaches and parents on the sidelines at grassroots youth games.

Don't forget that the NEC has agreed for the time being to subsidise 50% of the course fees paid by active LLF Managers on proof of completion of the the Level One Coaching Course. Apply via your League Secretary.

In Little League Football, the protection of the children comes first. We must check all volunteers through the Criminal Records Bureau. That's not just a Little League rule - it's also the law.
If you haven't yet been checked, the 'Responsible Person' at your League will be in touch with you to help you fill in a form. It takes about 10 minutes of your time, and you will need to show proof of who you are and where you live. There are very strict rules on confidentiality.
The system is designed to stop the wrong sort of person getting involved in children's organisations, and we thank you for your co-operation. If you would like to know more, please ask your Responsible Person in the first place.
