Diamonds under-12s girls won the league and cup double, while going the entire season unbeaten.

Having already won the BBDFL higher division title, they sealed the historic achievement by winning the cup on penalties.

After the final against AFC Bolton finished 0-0, the girls held their nerve in the shoutout with Erin, Maria, Frankie and Eva all scoring before hero keeper Darci saved Bolton’s final kick.

Captain Violette then stepped up to score the winning penalty which capped a remarkable season.

Congratulations to the girls - Darci, Elsa, Erin, Essi, Eva, Frankie, Layla, Lexi, Maria, Mia, Jeanette and Violette. As well as squad players Maya and Lois.

And, of course, huge credit to manager Mark and coaches Craig and Kris.

Marauders chairman Chris Abbott said: “This is a remarkable achievement and great credit goes to all the girls and coaches.

“Having looked back through the history books, this was one of the best seasons ever for a Marauders team.”
