September 20, 2016 · 0 Comments

The Bolton U16 Boys Travelling Soccer Team enjoyed a great season with eight wins, one tie and three losses.
And the topped things off with the championship.
They finished second in a six-team division, which consisted of squads from Caledon, Rockwood, Milton, Shelburne and Hillsbourgh, Erin And District Soccer (HEADS).
Over the Championship Weekend, the first game pitted Bolton against HEADS with a straight forward 4-0 win for Bolton.
The second game was against Milton. The Bolton team couldn’t prevent the goal on a penalty kick, but tied it up in regular play. The game went to a shoot-out, with Milton coming out on top with a 2-1 win.
In the third game against Rockwood, the win went to Bolton after a tough match and a 1-0 score.
With one loss under their belts, Bolton had to face Milton again, but the results were different this time — Bolton won 1-0.
Now Milton and Bolton were tied in points and had to face off for one last time. Again, good team-play, great sportsmanship and a 1-0 score made Bolton the winner of the tournament and made them the U16 Soccer Champions of 2016.
Head Coach Mike Sheridan closed the season with heartfelt words.
“They are a wonderful bunch of young men,” he said. “They are competitive, but respectful of opponents, officials and fans; great work ethic. I hope to see them all back next season and proud to have them call me ‘Coach.’ Many thanks to my right hand and Assistant Coach, Graziano Nespolo.”
