Parkfiled B 2 v 3 Kensington Dragons U11s The boys had not played a match for a few weeks so there was a worry that this match would be difficult. To make things worse we only had 9 players come Sunday morning so we now had a huge mountain to climb. The game started bright for the…
FC Kodak 0 v 7 Kensington Dragons U14 Eagles It was a game of two halves winter and spring. As the Siberian wind swept us westwards towards Wealdstone, we found ourselves floundering, directionless, incapable of finding the goal. Or indeed the pitch, which we only located with minutes to go before kick-off. And while we…
Hayes & Yeading 5- 0 Kensington Dragons U13s A force 10 gale greeted us as we arrived at H&Y. Playing against the wind in the first half we were in trouble early having difficulty clearing our lines and quickly found ourselves 3-0 down after 15 Mins As the half progressed the team started to adapt…
Fellow Cup Winners The Firsts WON the Middlesex County Cup on Wednesday night under floodlights by beating NPL 2-1. A fantastic achievement.

After having upset the odds in the reverse fixture it was clear from the off that CB wanted…
Kensington Dragons 1 v 0 Supreme Athletic With yet another weather enforced break Dragons needed to get this third round cup game played as the fixtures are already beginning to pile up. Playing against a team that dramatically knocked them out of a different cup at the semi-final stage on penalties two years ago, the…
Fellow Despondent Dragons As the snow and sleet swept over the country all the Dragons games were called off. The historically minded might be surprised to find that, whilst the weather has generally been fine at this time of year, we did have a similar upset in 2008. Looking back at the same weekend: 2012: A…
Chiswick 1 v 3 Kensington Dragons With an enforced week of rest due to the manager taking his nuptials, the Firsts had an away trip to a Chiswick side who since the start of the year have lost all games in the league but won two cup games to get into a final. A potential…
