Their coach Jack Sidgwick said: “This is their first ever season playing as a team and even football for that matter.
"We have a really supportive group of parents and the girls give 100 per cent in every training session and football match.
"In the last two weeks, they have had two really positive results, winning 5-0 and drawing 0-0 against a team that is trying to get promoted.

The girls’ next fundraising activity will be a sponsored walk on Sunday (March 5).
Jack said: “Everyone who makes a donation will not only be supporting the girls but also all of those affected in Turkey and Syria.
