What a great weekend for “the Brox ” . Firstly the under20’s went to Bonnyrigg and won 3-2 in waht was a great game to watch  , Caelan Arthurs opened the scoring on 40 minutes  with Bonnyrigg Rose hitting back with an equaliser a minute later through Scott Walker . The second half saw the hosts take the lead through Jack Hancock on the hour mark .  Broxburn battled back and equalised on 69 minutes through Rory Smith . Alexander Morris  got the winner on 90 minutes to the delight of the full squad .

The seniors travelled to Boness United and were 1-0 up at the break through a last minute strike from Sam Jones . Despite having Daniel Irving being sent off on 53 minutes for use of an elbow they got a equaliser on 76 minutes through Thomas Grant . Broxburn were not to be out done and Matty McDonald , who had just come on the park fired home a winner on 84 minutes . A satisfactory day at the office on all fronts .

With both Broxburn Athletic and Tranent being knocked out the South Challenge Cup last Saturday , both clubs contacted each other to rearrange until the Saturday the 10th of October from the Tuesday the 15th of September the Lowland League match . The Lowland League Board agreed to the request at board meeting on Monday . Hospitality is available for this match.

The Young Brox put in a competent display to progress into the second round of the development League cup .  A goal in added on time from Caelan Arthurs  sent us in at the break 1-0 up . The second half saw Joel Sneddon get Boness United  on level terms on 51 Minutes . But goals from ex Boness Lucas McConaghy on 61 minutes and a second from Caelan Arthurs on 67 minutes sealed the win . Overall another stepping stone in the development of these young players and their reward is a trip to Auchinleck Talbot in the second round on Friday October the 9th .

We would like to thank everyone who comes along to support the boys and hope you are well enough entertained with the football on show , it is much appreciated  by all involved with the Under 20’s .

The Broxburn Athletic Under 20’s played their second development league match at the Albyn Park last Friday and were unfortunate to be on the end of a narrow 3-2 defeat to East Fife  . Caelan Arthurs  scoring both goals on 36 m and 90+3 m for the young Burn , with East Fife scoring through Robbie Anderson on 44m and 79m with Kebba Bah opening the scoring on 32m  , Once again chances were created but not taken but over all a side beginning to gel together as a team and lots of positive’s to take away from this match .
