Summary of the action from Week 11 in the LIGA 11-a-side competitions.

The nationwide affliction of bad weather hit the LIGA again this week as only two games took place with both being held at Southglade Park Hub to the north of the City Centre.

In LIGA B league leaders Chaps Society faced Teenage Mutant Ninja Skrtels whose 2-0 defeat earlier in the season was the only time Chpas have scored less than four against an opponent. T.M.N.S. fell behind to an early Elliot Myrants-Wilson goal as he floated a curled twenty yard shot into the top right corner of the goal. However, T.M.N.S. then managed to not only subdue the potent Chaps attack for the next hour but also carved out some decent chances for themselves. These missed chances then came back to haunt them as Chaps finally broke through in the final quarter of the game, scoring two more goals to leave the final score 3-0 and Chaps six points clear at the top of LIGA B.

In LIGA C Blenheim FC played Expected Toulouse with both sides knowing a win would allow them to move to the top of the table. In a game that was high on chances for either side Blenheim's cutting edge proved the difference as they won 6-1, though Expected Toulouse showed glimpses of their ability, with Zach Pickin's 30 yard howitzer of a goal being their stand out moment of the day.

Week 11's Team Of The Week Award goes to Blenheim for the-r win against Expected Toulouse which lifts them to the top of LIGA C for the first time this season.

Week 12 is again hoped to be the week where a full fixture program returns to the LIGA. The highlight games are 1st vs 3rd in LIGA A as BSOC All Stars play ACS, 1st vs 2nd in LIGA B with Chaps Society meeting Puyol Pants Down and the long awaited Chamakh My Pitch Up vs FC Banterlona clash in LIGA C.

Viva La LIGA!
