On Sunday 5^th October, the Under 14 National League side played a pre-season friendly against the Maidstone Warriors Under 14 CVL side.The game was played straight after the Kent Crusaders men’s team had a great victory over Sevenoaks at home.

Kent Crusaders got off to a flying start and had racked up 17 points to Maidstone’s 4 in the first quarter. Crusaders kept up the momentum in the 2^nd quarter and went into the half 38-11

Coach Matt Fenton played 5-on, 5-off throughout the game and this certainly helped some of the guys get to know each other although. Crusaders big guys, Callum Thomas and Jonathon Appiah worked extremely well together but it was another great all round performance from the Under 14’s.

Crusaders kept up the tempo of the game and scored 19 points in the third quarter but then went on to score 24 points in the fourth quarter to win the game 81-21.

Crusaders played some great defence as well and the number of rebounds won and steals made has improved throughout the team and Coach Fenton’s aim will be to carry this level of performance into the start of the National League season which begins in 2 weeks time.
