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…

Kensington Dragons U14 Eagles 2 – 4 YAC Star Ealing The great Andres Iniesta has tried to suggest there is only one way to play football. As the mighty Eagles have discovered to their cost over the past fortnight, that simply isn’t so. Playing attractive, thoughtful football requires time to think, and when you face a team…
A wet week lead to a wet weekend with most matches cancelled and those that were not maybe should have been. The only bright light was the successful start of the Girls’ Section on Friday evenings from 5.30-7pm on the main pitch at the Westway – all girls aged from 9-15 are welcome to join…
YAC Ealing 7 - 2 Kensington Dragons U14 Eagles So it was the biggest game of the season. The pitch was a quagmire and we lost 7-2.
