GIRL footballers at Culdrose Gannets Under 8s are enjoying the start of their first season.

Playing as the all female team in the Kernow Youth Mixed League, the side have played two matches including against an all boys club.

Despite having lost both games, the girls still enjoyed being on the field and took the lead inside the first minute of their opener.

Manager Matt Annis said: “I couldn’t be more proud of the girls over their first couple of games.

“They have done both themselves and their parents proud and hopefully we can continue to improve and have fun as the season progresses.”
