The Under 15s (2011/12) set off for an adventure to Europe.
The original idea was to take the team to watch England play New Zealand in the FIFA Women's World Cup in Dresden, Germany. The 15 players, parents and Team Managers, Graham and Dave were waved off from Bury's Gigg Lane on Thursday 30th June by Damien Mozika, family and friends.
On arrival at Berlin the group spent the day taking in the sights and surroundings.
The next day they travelled to Dresden to watch the match. They had a great experience in the fan-zone and entertained the audience with a display of football skills, singing and dancing - the girls were the party!
Following England's win over New Zealand the girls were invited back to the fan-zone to continue the entertainment. Whilst in the fan-zone the group were interviewed by local and national TV and radio, wanting to know the state of women's football in the UK. After a fun and exhausting day they returned to the hotel in Berlin for a rest.
On the Saturday the group travelled across town to play a match of their own against Hertha Berlin's U16s team. Although the girls played really well they lost 4-2 to the older German side. The loss was overridden by the fact the girls have made some great new friends and were made extremely welcome by the hosts.
After a busy few days the group headed for home only to find they would be accompanied on the flight home by George Sampson, the girls were beside themselves with excitement as he agreed to pose for photographs and sign autographs.
The girls were an absolute credit not only to themselves but also to their parents, Club and town. Well done girls and thanks to Graham, Dave and the team's parents in organising a fantastic trip.
