Letchworth Garden City Eagles Youth Football Club.
Eagle’s girls league two champions - The under 14 girls have done it again, winning the league twice now in the last three years.
Congratulations on the under 12 blues reaching the final of the County Cup and under 17 yellows reaching the final of the RCYFL League Cup. The blues lost in extra time and the yellows were well beaten by a very strong Hitchin side, but both teams worked hard to get to their finals and put up fighting displays on the big day. Well done!
