—————————————————-

GOALKEEPER
Marc Glucksman (L’Equipe) – Made a brilliant penalty save to side in the game, communicated well with his back four and made a string of fine saves

DEFENCE
Rob Rodney (Scrabble) – Part of a superb Scrabble backline which frustrated Raiders as they claimed a glorious win for the side
Akiva Fink (Bayern Mincha) – Put in another solid performance at the back for Mincha and scored a superb goal to boot
Dan Lassman (Redbridge B) – Worked tirelessly and showed excellent composure at the back in what was a brilliant display
Oli Richardson (Scrabble) – Another key element to the Scrabble defence, brilliant, both defensively and as an attacking threat

MIDFIELD:
Rob Simons (L’Equipe) – Worked his socks off playing on both wings, was a constant threat going forward, was always back helping the defence and scored a stunning strike
Paul Biller (Redbridge B) – Scored, claimed three assists as he continued his fine form this season
Avi Garson (Faithfold A) – Gave a dominating display in the middle, swept everything up and got the play moving
Alex Sherr (NL Raiders C) – Ran the show down the right flank and was unplayable. Scored twice and claimed assists too

STRIKERS:
Mitch Young (FC Team) – Scored another two goals, along with two assists in a brilliant performance up front
Leor Sidle (Oakwood A) – First game back after a lengthy layoff and took his chance like the best strikers do

PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Leor Sidle (Oakwood A)

MANAGER OF THE WEEK:
Ray Abrahams (Scrabble)

Support your Jewish community. Support your Jewish News

Thank you for helping to make Jewish News the leading source of news and opinion for the UK Jewish community. Today we're asking for your invaluable help to continue putting our community first in everything we do.

For as little as £5 a month you can help sustain the vital work we do in celebrating and standing up for Jewish life in Britain.

Jewish News holds our community together and keeps us connected. Like a synagogue, it’s where people turn to feel part of something bigger. It also proudly shows the rest of Britain the vibrancy and rich culture of modern Jewish life.

You can make a quick and easy one-off or monthly contribution of £5, £10, £20 or any other sum you’re comfortable with.

100% of your donation will help us continue celebrating our community, in all its dynamic diversity...

Engaging

Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.

Celebrating

There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.

Pioneering

In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.

Campaigning

Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.

Easy access

In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.

Voice of our community to wider society

The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.

We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
