The Darley Dale Funday Six A side tournament was a huge success on and off the pitch for the Juniors.
26 teams from Darley Dale Juniors,Matlock Juniors, Tansley Juniors, Ashover JFC and Wirksworth took part in the tournament
which took place in glorious sunshine on Sunday 27th of June.
And the lads from Darley Juniors did the club proud as the Under 7s, Under 8s and Under 9s all won their respective
age group competitions against strong teams from other local junior football clubs.
Congratulations to all the players in those teams on their success and a special mention for Darley under 12s who
pushed Tansley all the way in the under 12s final only to suffer the heartbreak of losing on penalties.
The success on the pitch was matched with the tremendous work of the clubs volunteers who organised the tournament,
officiated the games and gave up their time to run the bbq and club stall - not only for Sunday's junior six a-side
but also for Saturday's senior tournament that took place the previous day with 14 local teams taking part.
Tommy's Tornadoes eventually picked up the senior title.
The funday tournaments raised over œ800 in total, all of which will benefit all the children who play for the juniors.
