Manor Youth 2 – 4 Kensington Dragons U14 Eagles If your pampered Prem star fancies a winter break then he can always join the Harrow Youth League where snow and rain had seen off two key fixtures in as many weekends. But whether £100,000-a-week would have bought you half the spirit we saw on Sunday is…
Spelthorne FC 3rds 0 v 3 Kensington Dragons Reserves With a possible County final to look forward to, the Dragons assembled their strongest squad of the season and arrived in Staines in positive mood. Setting up with a sensible 4-3-3 formation the job was fairly simple. Keep it solid through the middle and allow fullbacks…
Kensington Dragons Reserves 1 – 0 British Airways Reserves After a 3 week break the Dragons looked very rusty in the early gambits. The muddy pitch wasn’t helping nor the constant losing of possession in midfield which was preventing any type of forward play. However as they absorbed the pressure, one young Dragon was already having a blinder,…
With the Dragons everywhere revelling in the bracing conditions few were dreaming of lying on sun drenched beaches: The First beat Brentham 1-0 away. After last week’s big win this game was even bigger as it would consolidate the result. Brentham started with intent but gradually the contest started to become more one sided in…

Brentham 0 v 1 Kensington Dragons After a big win last week this game was even bigger as it would consolidate the result. Brentham were much changed from the cup game and started with a real intent to get the result. As the game settled and the storm weathered by the Dragons the contest started…
We are off to a great start with the Firsts beating the league leaders to take the number one spot: The Firsts beat Sandgate 5-3. With only one league defeat the Dragons aim was to hit the ground running against top of the table Sandgate. The game started better for Sandgate who took advantage of…
Heathrow Club Youth FC 3 – 7 Kensington Dragons U14 Eagles It wasn’t quite purple Hayes, but the Dragons certainly brought welcome patches of colour to a damp, fog-shrouded West London this Sunday. Bright, creative and hungry for the ball, our boys carried on from where they’d left 2012. The opposition bustled like their airport…
