Just the one match report for this edition of the weekly review, the final review of the season.
Glenfield United Under 12 9v9 welcomed Borough Alliance, their last game of the season and last game at Ellis Park as they make the step up to 11 a side at Gynsill Lane next season.
The hosts were on a seven match unbeaten run and had won their last three games, while the visitors were second bottom but had enjoyed a 3-0 win versus Loughborough last Sunday.
And it was Alliance who opened the scoring inside the opening five minutes. A freekick from 20 yards out was tipped onto the post by Glenfield 'keeper Morgan Fenton and the follow up also struck the woodwork, but the third effort was poked home by number 11 to give Alliance a surprise lead.
Glenfield were then dealt another blow when 'keeper Fenton went off with a shin injury, meaning Kyle Belcher had to stand in between the sticks.
Halfway through the first half and Glenfield got their equaliser. A ball over the top was latched on to by the ever lively Oliver Lewis before the striker side footed it home.
And Glenfield took the lead before half time as winger Harry Windle shot into the top right corner with an emphatic finish.
Meanwhile at the other end, stand in 'keeper Belcher didn't have much to do in goal, and the start of the second half saw Fenton shake off his injury and return in goal.
Glenfield kept plugging away for a third to put the game to bed but had to wait until five minutes before full time. A cross from the right bypassed two Glenfield players before being met by Daniel Youngs who struck it swweetly on the half volley into the bottom corner.
And with virtually the last touch of the game, Windle got his second with a header which went over the line after the Borough 'keeper, who had an impressive game, let the ball slip from his grasp.
The 4-1 win marks the end of a good season for the under 12's, who had hoped to finish the season in third with yesterday's win, but a 4-2 win for Hinckley away to Loughborough meant the Knitters finished above Glenfield.
United finish the season with 28 points from their 18 games, including eight wins, four of which came from the last four games of the season.
Elsewhere, Glenfield United 2010 Under 14's finished their season with a heavy 9-0 defeat away to league leaders Harborough Town 2012. Despite the scoreline it was still a good season for United, finishing third in the table with 33 points from their 18 games including ten wins.
Glenfield United Tigers Under 10's ended their season with a 3-1 win away to Melton Foxes Cubs. The win means the Tigers finish the season in sixth place with 12 points from their 14 games.
