Results and Update W/E 18th May 2025

The season is over for almost all teams with exams looming for many – we wish everybody the best of luck.  

The End of Season Whole Club Presentations were held at LCS on Sunday. The club is getting so big that the event requires much organisation – and clearing up afterwards. It proved to be a great deal of fun and was a worthy end to the 2024/25 season.  

The U15 Girls lost at home to Broomwood in the League Cup Final. This was a tremendous achievement  for the Dragons as they are the first Girls’ Team to reach a Cup Final. The Dragons played well in the first half and at that stage the result could have gone either way. Broomwood however pulled away in the second half.

The U14 Girls lost to Brent Schools away. Brent are top of the league so this was always going to be a tough challenge. The Dragons played magnificently in the heat and scored four tremendous goals. Unfortunately, Brent scored more.

Results W/E 11th May 2025

The big news is that our U15 Girls have battled through to the Cup Final to be played this coming Saturday at the Linford Christ Stadium with a 10AM Kick Off. It should be great fun – win or lose – so come along to watch but please sit in the stand to avoid interfering with the Thames Valley Harriers.  

The U14 Girls beat Alexandra Park 5-4 at home. In an incredible end-to-end thriller, the game was level at halftime with two apiece. Who would have thought there would be another five goals to outdo the first half?! The Dragons found moments of brilliance and were deserved winners over their bitter rivals AP. To the noise of home fans they ended their penultimate game of the season with a huge three points to create momentum into their final fixture.

The U12 Girls drew 1-1 to St Josephs at home. The Dragons went 0-1 down in the last 15 minutes of the first half but then came roaring back in the last 15 minutes of the second half to make it 1-1. The Dragons strikers had chances to put the game to bed but were unable to capitalise.

The U15 Girls are in the League Cup Final against Broomwood FC this coming Saturday with a 10am KO at the Linford Christie Stadium

There were no other scheduled games across Seniors, Youth Boys and Youth Girls.

The U10 Boys trained in preparation for entering the League.

Results W/E 4th May 2025

The END of SEASON PRESENTATIONS will be on Sunday May 18 at the Linford Christie Stadium

We are hurtling to towards the end of the season:

The Firsts, in the Premier Division, narrowly lost 1-2 to Jolof Sports at home. In their final game of the season, the Dragons played well against JS who were battling for promotion. Back in January the two teams drew to earn the Dragons an invaluable point. This time around JS were more determined to stay in the top four.

The Blues were beaten 1-4 away at Wiseman West. Despite the result, the Dragons played well. With a full squad the outcome may well have been in the Dragons favour.

The Old Dragonians had no game.

The U14 Girls beat Ealing Trailfinders 3-2 on aggregate in a double header. As one of the few Dragons’ sides still with unplayed League games, all eyes were on this Saturday fixture.  The Dragons lost the first leg 0-1 before recovering in the second to soundly beat ET 3 -1 and win on aggregate across both matches. 

The U12 Girls lost away at Islington. The Dragons started well, holding top of the League Islington at bay for the first quarter. The Dragons then made 6 mistakes that led to 6 goals against them and the game slipped away.

The U15 Boys lost away to FC Starz. The Dragons played fantastically for the first half of the first half to score twice before one could say “The Dragons are a great team”. They then played rather less well for the remaining three quarters of the match to lose heavily. One hopes that one lives and learns.

The U16 Boys lost at home to Celtic. The Dragons had a bad day at the office against a strong Celtic side who were relentless in front of goal. Celtic ate the division’s champions with only one loss all year and the Dragons’ struggled to inflict their second loss. Overall this has been a reasonable season for the Dragons and they can hold their heads up high.

All other Youth Boys and the Youth Girls teams had no scheduled games. The U10 Boys trained in preparation for the League.
