George Salter and Archie Mason were both selected to attend Surrey County U13s football trials this season, both boys made the second round of trials despite very strong competition in a County flooded with academy players and top level grassroots clubs.

Sadly George was not successful in gaining a place in this seasons County team, we hope he is as proud of himself as we are for making second trials. George plays with real heart and commitment week in, week out so we are hopeful this is not the last opportunity for him.

Archie Mason was successful in gaining a place and will represent Surrey for the 2018/19 season at under 13s. In a squad made up mainly of academy players and with many of those from the division above us having been unsuccessful this really is a huge achievement, no more than Archie deserves. Archie is a vital member of our defence and a real credit to the club, his work rate is incredible and his desire to keep improving inspires us all.

A.F.C Kingston Youth would like to congratulate both boys and wish Archie all the best with his County football moving forwards.
