A round of applause should go to three of the Mosstodloch School football team who took part in Elgin City's 3 On 3 tournament Sunday 24th March.

In a tournament comprising 14 teams from all around Moray, Alisdair Ebdy, Andrew Murdoch & James Bremner went through the group stages as the only unbeaten team, and the only team not to concede a single goal, winning 5 matches and drawing one 0-0. They finished with the highest points score of the day, 17 out of a possible 18, but were unluckily eliminated in the knockout rounds that followed.

In an overly physical match, Mosstodloch were very unlucky not to finish with a better share of the points against West End.

Losing 2 goals early in the first half, they they played the better football, and had the best of the chances throughout the match. They drew even to 2-2 and again to 3-3, but finally the luck was with the away team.

Final score Mosstodloch 3-4 West End 

Alexander 2, Murdoch 1 

Everything clicked into place for Mosstodloch in their away game against East End, and they looked comfortable from defence through to attack, with some lovely skills & passing of the ball.

In stark contrast to the previous weeks match, this football was a joy to watch with both sides clearly enjoying themselves. 

Thanks also to East End for inviting the kids to stay behind after the match for a friendly 5 a side.

Final score East End 0-6 Mosstodloch

Henderson 3, Alexander 1, Murdoch 1, Laurence 1 

Mosstodloch seem to be on a bit of a roll. In the last game before Christmas, against Auldearn, the boys fought their way to a 7-0 victory. The score was possibly a bit harsh on Auldearn as they also played very well, but an brilliant performance from the Mosstodloch goalie Dunlop denied them any solace.
