Kidderminster Lions under-8s clinched the First Division title in the Stourport and District Youth Football League on Saturday.

The seven and eight-year-olds won the title after beating rivals Ferndale Youth 3-1 away.

The team notched up 66 points and a goal difference of 109 on the way to securing this year's coveted prize.

Managed by West Midlands FA Grassroots Coach of 2007 Mark Hollis and assisted by Sean Nash, they have only lost once all season, drawn three, and won 21 games so far.

The Lions played a season early last year, finishing third from bottom, in readiness for this season - a tactic which has paid off.

The youngsters came together through the Kidderminster Lions Soccer School, which coaches children on Sunday mornings from the age of four.
