In the Bury Bolton & District League the Under 16’s Tornadoes were in action twice within three days and collecting maximum points currently hold top spot in the Section C table. Against local rivals Moorside Rangers Blues the Beechy lads found themselves a goal down but equalised via Mason White and the teams shared a 1-1 score line at the break. The second half produced a closely fought affair and the Tornadoes were guaranteed a 2-1 win thanks to a winning goal scored by Nauris Kaluga. On Saturday morning United travelled again, this time for an away fixture with Rossendale Valley and first half goals from Mason White, Kurtis Taylor and Harry Cottrill were enough to secure Beechy a 3-1 victory. The home team’s consolation goal came late in the second half.
Following their third successive victory in the Timperley and District League the Under 16’s Predators took over as leaders of Division One.

Beechy Under 13’s Storm dominated the first half of their Section A home game against Adlington Hawks but had to settle for a goalless first half. Into the second period and keeping the pressure on their opponents Beechy continued to create chances galore. It took something special to break the deadlock when Mason Alker won the ball near the halfway line and after skilfully beating three players produced a first-class finish. Following more great football United led 3-0 with both goals scored by Kieran Robinson then producing a brilliant solo run Bobby Anderson netted the fourth goal when he hammered the ball into the net from the tightest of angles. Goal number five was simply stunning when Jordan Booth found the top corner from fully twenty-five yards and though Beechy conceded late in the contest they were good value for their 5-1 victory.

In this Development Group Yellow Division fixture, the Tornadoes defence of Raphael Silveiro, Harley Kirk, Luke Moss and Jack Fitton stood strong when Flixton Pumas produced some powerful attacks. The match included nine goals and on target for Beechy were Man of the Match Bradley Oliver (Hat-Trick) Jack Fitton (superb 30-yard free kick) and Theo Valentine.
Dominating their away game at South Manchester Tigers the Under 11’s Storm (9v9) held a comfortable two goal lead but the Tigers won a penalty and reduced the arrears before half time.
