In addition, midweek results have confirmed that the U13As will finish third in their inaugural season in the Surrey Youth League Premier Elite - only AFC Wimbledon and Tooting & Mitcham are above them - a remarkable achievement for a village club.
Congratulations to all the boys. It's been a remarkable week of success for the Badgers.

THE WAITING GAME
21 April 2009 |
It promises to be a long week's wait for the Badgers, as results this weekend have put two of our teams on the cusp of glory next Sunday.
An 8-2 victory for the U13Bs has set up a promotion decider with rivals Epsom Eagles. The sums are simple - a win for the Badgers and they'll be playing in the Epsom & Ewell First Division next season. A draw won't do - although, either way, it's been a fantastic first season in their new league. |

The U12As charge towards the Surrey Youth Div 1 title.

A six goal thriller at Dorking FC's Meadowbank stadium saw the U12As share the points with Meadowcroft. It leaves them needing one win from their last two games to secure the Surrey Youth League Division 1 title. The first chance comes at Whitton on Sunday.
And commiserations to the U12Bs. They had a'winner takes all' final match at Broadbridge Heath, with the Horsham & District 'D' Division championship at stake. Broadbridge Heath were the victors to pip the Badgers to the title by just one point. But second place is no mean achievement!

SAINTLY VICTORY
16 April 2009 |
After their first ever season amongst the Surrey Youth Premier Elite, the U13As have notched up another first....a trip to play a team of players from Southampton FC's Academy.
And on an immaculate pitch, Simon Coffey's Brockham team put in a fine footballing display. Many of their opponents were younger Under 12s - but as Academy players, they're amongst the best in their age group in the South of England. So the Badgers can take great pride in the fact they came away with a 2-0 win. |

The U13As prepare to take on Southampton FC Academy at the club's Marchwood training ground.

The boys and their parents, relatives and supporters were a credit to Brockham not just with the quality of their play, but the way they approached the game. Our thanks goes to the Academy at Southampton FC for this fantastic opportunity for Brockham Badgers. There's talk of a rematch before next season.

REET ELITE
6 April 2009 |
Brockham have well and truly joined the ranks of the best in Surrey this season.
A 5-2 win brought an end to the U13As first season in the Surrey Youth Premier Elite - and sees the boys on course to finish third in the league. Only AFC Wimbledon and Tooting & Mitcham have done better than the Badgers.
It's a remarkable achievement for Brockham, a non-selective community club providing football for all, to be rubbing shoulders with some of the most elite youth football clubs in the country. |

On the up - the U12As secure promotion to the Premier League.

And in a season of unprecedented success, this week has seen more to celebrate elsewhere.
The U12As played twice, won twice and secured promotion to the Surrey Youth Premier North. Three points from the next three games will wrap up the Division 1 title.
And the U9As were crowned champions of the Tadworth League without kicking a ball. Nick Torpey's team finished their matches last week and faced a nervous wait. As their title rivals completed their remaining games this weekend, Brockham got the news that it had another trophy to look forward to.
