FC CLACTON'S under-11 Blues finished as runners-up in the Trophy Event Grand Final, after losing a close match 1-0 against bogey team Eight Ash Green Blues.

The young Seasiders had successfully come through a tough group stage and then won a nervy play-off against Frinton and Walton Blues to reach the final at Wivenhoe Town.

The club, their managers and their parents are very proud of the boys.
