The annual Presentation was our first, after Christopher's debut season for Houghton Albion. His registration will continue next season, which begins in September, so we look forward to plenty more football and more great goals from all of our squad. I intend to get permission to photograph as many of these games as possible after my first and only attempt to date of photographing a football match (see photo's on my previous blog entry).
Well done to Dave & Judith Smurthwaite (manager and secretary of Houghton Albion) for all their efforts during the 2011-12 season. Also to all the parents for their commitment, and most of all to the players themselves - a great bunch of kids who give 100%.
To wrap up the season, until the next one, here are a few photographs from the Presentation Night. Christopher collected two awards in his first season. He is shown on stage alongside other aged players who collected their individual 'Sportsman Of The Season' award. Also shown below is a shot of the Houghton Albion squad with their trophies.
Looking very forward to Season 2012-13...Ash
