U8 Mosquitoes vs Newton Aycliffe Juniors
Another tough game this week as the U8 Mosquitoes travelled to Newton Aycliffe. Great team display and defensive resilience this week by everyone! Nelly, Jack, Archie, Theo, Blaize, Josh, Toby and Roman gave everything this week and the coaches couldn't of asked for anymore. Coaches player of the match went to Theo and Toby. Theo won every tackle today and was everywhere simply brilliant. Toby showed some unbelievable skill today and picked up some good goals. Parents player of the match went to Jack who battled hard throughout and never gave up.
Middleton Rangers U9’s Vs - Newton Aycliffe
Middleton was looking to build on an encouraging performance last week and came out of the traps quickly giving Newton Aycliffe no time to settle, resulting in some quick fire goals for the hosts.
As the game progressed Newton Aycliffe grew into the game and started to cause Middleton problems - with some heart stopping moment for the Middleton coaches and supporters.
Middleton played some lovely football in spells today with the new formation starting to click. A couple of great individual goals and some well worked team goals too. The training drills are really starting to pay off.
Well done everyone! 👏🏻

⚽ Middleton Rangers U12s vs Redcar ⚽
The lads battled for every ball, never gave up and continued to work hard for each other right until the final whistle. There was some fantastic football played, some great passages of play and plenty of attacking moments, with Middleton unlucky not to get on the scoresheet. The effort and togetherness were there for everyone to see, and the boys can be proud of how they kept going against a tough opposition.
Heads up, lads! Results won’t always go our way, but the attitude, teamwork and determination shown today are what we want to see every week. We go again! 🟧⬛️⚽
🏆 Parents’ Player of the Match – Freddie C
Playing out on the wing, Freddie put in another fantastic performance. He played some great football, made some brilliant runs into the box and looked dangerous going forward. A well-deserved award for his effort and attacking play! 👏
🏆 Opposition Coach’s Player of the Match – Jackson
Jackson put in a great shift, holding the ball up brilliantly and bringing others into play with some excellent through balls. He also matched that quality with some fantastic tackles, showing great strength and determination throughout. A well-deserved award for an all-round strong performance! 💪⚽
Middleton Rangers vs FC Teesside
Our fine form continued this morning with a tough match at home to FC Teesside.
We started the game as bright as the weather, creating chances and working on the link up play between our lads, and our quick thinking attackers caught FC Teesside napping with a quick short corner, with Tommy drilling the ball into the net.
The heat played its part and the lads had to dig deep, but their efforts over the past few weeks in training paid off, and kept us going to the full time whistle. 💪
Special mention to our goalkeeper James who made multiple outstanding saves, earning himself MOTM! 👏
