In their Development Group Red Division away game with Ladybridge Leopards the Under 11's Storm missed a lot of chances that cost them a possible victory. Beechy went a goal down at half time in a very good game of 9v9 soccer but they shared a four goal score line at the final whistle. Man of the Match was Jayden Okoli who also scored both goals via two great free kicks.
Local rivals Moorside Rangers Yellow were the Under 11's Tornadoes (9v9) opponents in the Development Group Yellow Division. In a fairly evenly balanced game Beechy took a two goal lead but due to a lapse of concentration Rangers pulled a goal back before half time. Beechy were slow to find a rhythm in the second half and Rangers equalised but the Tornadoes quickly found their form again and added two further goals and secure a deserved victory. Harley Kirk received the Man of the Match honour and goals for the Tornadoes were scored by Adam Wood, Oliver Lomas, Bradley Oliver and Charlie Mulvenna.
Eccles Rugby Club was the venue for the Under 10's Typhoon's away game against Winton JFC Blue.

Freddie Latham added a third goal for the Typhoon while defenders Milonga Mututa and Harry Bentley were rock solid throughout.
The Under 14's Tornadoes had just eleven players available for their Section B home game with bottom of the table team Bolton Lads and Girls Club Blue. Straight from the kick off Beechy piled on the pressure on the visitors defence and it wasn't long before the Tornadoes took the lead. Winning possession Jeanny Le Blanc broke through down the right flank and hammered the ball home for a trademark goal. It quickly became 2-0 when Leighton White played a neat one-two with Joe Horrocks and the ball was in the back of the net. Firmly in control United soon added a third goal via Jacob Wilson and Bolton lads knew they a tough seventy minutes against a rampant Beechy outfit. Keeping a tight grip on the contest the Tornadoes always created chances and went 4-0 up thanks to another goal from Jeanny le Blanc. Briefly enjoying more of the ball Bolton Lads forced United's keeper George Leigh into action and he responded with a couple of miraculous saves to protect the Tornadoes clean sheet. Just before half time Beechy added a fifth goal when Jeanny Le Blanc completed his hat trick. The second half produced a similar pattern as United continued to dictate the pace of the game but George Leigh still had to make a couple of crucial saves. Quickly back on the goal trail Beechy increased their lead after a powerful cross from Jeanny Le Blanc was turned into the net by a Bolton Lads defender. Leighton White with his second goal of the game netted United's seventh goal just before the Tornadoes were reduced to ten players due to Joe Bardsley's departure (prior commitment) But the missing player situation failed to unsettle United who continued to attack at every opportunity and Beechy bagged goal number eight courtesy of Joe Horrocks. To round off a perfect day Jeanny Le Blanc via his fourth goal made it 9-0 when he completed the scoring. Jeanny shared the Man of the Match Award with Cameron Wright.

Back at Beech Farm for the first time since November 2016 were Beechy Under 12's Thunder (9v9) who's Division 2 home game was against neighbours Moorside Rangers Green. In the first half United struggled with the heavy pitch and couldn't get a foothold in the match while Rangers adapted better with the conditions and led 3-0 at the break. Beechy's overall performance improved in the second half and they reduced the arrears with a goal from Jake O'Sullivan. Rangers responded and hit back to go 4-1 up but displaying some of the old Beechy spirit the Thunder were rewarded with three goals in fifteen minutes and in fairness should have won the game. There was a hat trick for Man of the Match Jake O'Sullivan plus a goal by Prince Idusuyi.
