Army Cadets from Three Company Beds and Herts ACF claimed silver medals after finishing second in the Beds and Herts intercompany boy’s six a-side football tournament.

The Three Company teams, made up with cadets from Berkhampstead, Harpendon, Hemel Hempstead and Watford Detachments, put up a good fight in all rounds.

Both the Boys Seniors and Junior groups made it through to the final of their respective competitions, but after 0 – 0 draws they both lost out in penalty shoot-outs.

Team Captain, Cadet Staff Sergeant Joe Rochford from Berkhampstead Detachment, said: “We worked hard and played well, it was a very close thing, both finals ending 1-0 on penalties. We all wish the cadets from Four Company, luck in the regional finals in February, and hope they bring the cup home for county.”
