DIVISION ONE:
FIXTURES & RESULTS
TABLE
SCRABBLE 3 REDBRIDGE JEWISH CARE C 3
While three points separated the sides going into this match, they ended the 90 minutes with a point apiece.
Zac Summerfield, Oli Richardson and Zak McLeod all scoring for the home side. Manager Ray Abrahams told jewishnews.co.uk: “To concede so deep into added time was a blow for us and just about summed up this rollercoaster of a season for our squad.
“But we looked stronger today and I can’t fault the boys for the effort as they all gave 100 percent to try and get the win to end our season on a high.
“To be honest we should have wrapped up the game in the first half and had we been more clinical in front of goal today in both halves we would be looking at three points now instead of one. If you don’t take your chances it costs and you don’t win football matches.
“Now the season is over we will regroup over the summer and be back stronger next time out.
“There were lots of positives to take out of the game today and reflecting on the season, we have retained our place in Division One which we are pleased about. But next season as we did this one, we want to bring in a few new faces to the squad to freshen things up and our target once again next season will be promotion to the Premier Division as a priority.”

Fairlop claimed the victory they needed to wrap up the Division two title – and did so in style.

“Today comes at the cost of our Mr Consistent Pierce Prince as he starts his new life in Los Angeles, we wish him all the very best in his new adventure.
“It was a good game of Football, credit to NLR C for getting a team together, they played the game in the right spirit. We will certainly enjoy ourselves over the coming weeks but attention will soon turn to next year, where we will on the hunt for more silverware.”

Engaging
Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.
Celebrating
There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.
Pioneering
In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.
Campaigning
Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.
Easy access
In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.
Voice of our community to wider society
The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.
