Match report   This match was the first time that Fulford had played host to York Cubs, as all previous meetings had been on the Knavesmire. The weather conditions were excellent, which was quite a contrast to Friday evening when a lightning storm passed over Fulford which meant that training had to be cut short for the first time in the 4 years that the team has been together.

Both sides got into their stride quickly with Fulford forcing a succession of corners. Cubs were unlucky not to take the lead when a long range shot from their left midfielder hit the foot of the post.

Fulford took the lead shortly after when another dangerous corner from Joe C was only partially cleared to Harrison, who met it first time on the half-volley with a hard low strike.

Fulford could have been two up when Will T was brought down for a penalty, but the resulting spot kick from Tom G hit the post and went wide.

Cubs nearly equalised when their centre forward ran through on goal, but was denied by a fantastic recovery slide tackle by Isaac which had to be timed to perfection, as it would have otherwise resulted in a penalty.

Fulford went two up when a good move in midfield between the two Joe's saw the ball played in to Harrison, who chipped it through to Will T, who controlled the ball back to goal and then spun and shot in one move for an excellent goal.

Cubs came out with renewed vigour in the second half and had their best spell of the game which resulted in a fine passing move which led to their left midfielder scoring a goal from close range that was much deserved by both him and his team.

Fulford restored their two goal advantage thanks to a brilliant long range strike from Frankie from the right hand angle of the penalty area.

Will M then scored two quick goals following excellent runs down the left wing, before cutting inside to score.

Fulford scored a 6th late on when Tom H dropped deep to collect the ball, Isaac sprinted past him and Tom played him in with an excellent through ball. Isaac ran through and kept his nerve to slot the ball past the keeper.
