West Riding Under-12 Shield Final Silsden 0 Farsley Celtic 1 Silsden were back at Woodlesford for the second time in a month and Farsley Celtic were their cup final opponents.

Both teams came out and played some great football. Silsden started off brightly with most of the play involving Danny King and Harry Marshall down the right wing but they could not find a way past a very solid defence.

Dylan Budge and Ben Ramsden were working their socks off trying to find opportunities to score but again there was no way through the Farsley defence.

The midfield of Ryan Narey and Josh Holt kept probing away but no clear cut chances for Silsden materialised.

After 15 minutes Farsley came more and more into the game and they took the lead on 27 minutes with a great move down the right which resulted in Jack Baker pulling off a great save but he couldn't do anything about the follow up.

In the latter minutes of the first half Silsden looked dangerous with Ben Addison and Josh Metcalfe having a bit of room on the left forcing Farsley to defend deep.

In the second period Ben Dakin replaced Addison and he had a superb game at left back.

The half was similar to the first with man of the match Josh Brown and Ben Phillips solid in the heart of the defence.

As the game went on Jack Roberts and Jack Leach were introduced to the game and in the last 10 minutes Silsden played their best football of the game and were very unlucky not to force an equaliser as they had the majority of possession.

This was a tremendous performance by all the lads and Farsley Celtic have been strongest opponents Silsden have come across.

Credit goes to both teams for putting on an outstanding football display.
