EXPERIENCED KINGS DEFEAT YOUNG CANNONS  


Cannons hosted the freshly re-formed Cornard Kings in Clacton last Friday evening. Even though this was the first fixture in the Cannons preseason programme, the team were still disappointed to lose. The vast majority of the Cannons team were much younger than their opponents, and their speed and fitness levels were apparent throughout. However the Kings did a great job on the boards therefore limiting the Cannons' chances to fast break and really capitalise on those young legs. 

Both teams would have hoped to have scored more, but equally would have been pleased with their defensive efforts. There were defiantly positives that both sets of coaches and players could take away from the game, and I'm sure as the summer cobwebs are shook off there will be a lot more to come from these two teams. In particular the young Cannons team! Next game: Tuesday 20th September 2016, 20.15 tip at Clacton Coastal Academy (formerly Colbaynes School).
