U18 COLLEGES' TROPHY FINAL
U18 Colleges Trophy Winners -
Wilberforce College
Wilberforce (Humberside CSFA) 1 Kingston (Surrey CSFA) 0
The National Final took place at Boston United Football Club on Wednesday 3 May 2006 and was a very successful occasion. The club may be in a lower division but their hospitality was Premier League. The game was refereed by Des Coulson, from the Football League Assistant Referees List. The match was a somewhat dull and tedious contest until a "free-for-all" half-way through the second half resulted in referee Coulson red-carding one of the Wilberforce players. This seemed to spur on the Hull team because a few minutes later a certain Robbie Fowler scored what proved to be the decisive goal with a header.
Squads:
Wilberforce: Adam Smith, David Suddaby, Lewis Barley, Lee Beach, Ben Etherington, Ryan McAllister, Alex Davidson, Scott Phillips, Alex Reverley, Andrew Kaye, Jordan Pullen, Robert Hunter, Robert Abrahamson, Robert Fowler, Alex Richmond, Andrew Coverdale
Kingston: Rodney Chiweshe, Elliot Blake, Tim Pitt, Chris Robinson, Daniel Fisher, Robin Shroot, John Coleman, Tom Windsor, Craig Masham, Jordan Kiffin, Harry Draper, Dean Thomas, Daniel Gurney, Daniel Meggie, Ronnie Vincent, Jermaine McGlashan, Nick White
