—————————————————-

GOALKEEPER
Grant Waissel (North London Raiders C) – May have been on the losing end, but still produced a number of smart saves

DEFENCE
Danny Berg (Redbridge A) – A consistent performer at right-back all season and deserves it for that alone plus he has never missed a penalty and stepped up again
Dan Breger (FC Team B) – Was brilliant, both defensively and offensively throughout the entire 90 minutes as Team kept up promotion challenge
Rafi Kon (Hendon A) – Solid, strong and commanding at the heart of the Hendon defence
Rob Glass (London Lions Garston) – Quite simply brilliant, influential and a rock at the back as side won the Middlesex County Cup

MIDFIELD:
Mitch Young (FC Team B) – Playing his first game back after returning from a three-month injury and capped off  performance with two assists
Yoav Kestenbaum (Hendon United A) – Was at his creative best at times – scored a goal and was a threat throughout
Ian Baron (L’Equipe) – Playing in a new ‘reverse sweeper’ role, worked ridiculously hard for the 90 minutes, creating a wall in front of the back four meaning Lions had to resort to long-range efforts
Avi Korman (Hendon United A) – Produced a typical energetic box-to-box performance, described as being “a class above.”

ATTACK:
Josh Webber (Boca Jewniors) – Top-notch performance up front, two cooly taken penalties earning his side a point
Max Kyte (London Lions Garston) – Man-of-the-match performance for the Herts side, his two goals helping them to a thumping 6-1 win

PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Rob Glass (London Lions Garston)

MANAGERS OF THE WEEK:
Danny Jacobs & Danny Reuben (London Lions Garston)

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.
