An all-girl soccer team has displayed real girl power by winning a league and cup double -- which they played in its entirety against only boys' teams -- completing the season without a defeat.
On Sunday, Plymouth-based, nine-a-side SB Frankfort Under-12 Girls beat Morley Rangers Juniors to win the Argus Cup in Torpoint, Cornwall. They had previously topped the Argus League by winning 14 out of 18 games against boys' teams."I was elated for the girls, four years we have been playing boys for the sole purpose of improving and learning. So to win the double this year has been incredible," head coach James Brown Tunnell and assistant coach John Preston told CNN Sport.
