Under‑16 Strathspey Thistle Face Tough Test in First Friendly Against Balloan


The Under‑16 Strathspey Thistle squad stepped into their first friendly of the season with determination and spirit, but faced a strong Balloan side who came away comfortable winners. It was a challenging opener, yet a hugely valuable one for a young team just beginning their journey together.

A Well‑Drilled Opponent
Balloan arrived sharper, fitter, and with clear match rhythm after playing street league football all summer. Their squad was also mostly a year older, giving them a physical and tactical edge that showed throughout the game.

Despite the scoreline, the Thistle boys never dropped their heads. They kept working, kept competing, and kept trying to play football the right way.

Missing Key Players
A few good players were unavailable on the night, which meant several lads were asked to step into new roles or take on extra responsibility. They handled it well, showing resilience and a willingness to learn.

Plenty to Build On
The coaching team were clear: this match wasn’t about the result — it was about seeing where the squad is, identifying strengths, and understanding what needs work.

Key takeaways included:

Fitness and sharpness will improve quickly with more training and matches.

Decision‑making under pressure showed promise but needs refinement.

Team shape and communication improved as the game went on.

Individual flashes of quality proved there’s real potential in this group.

The Road Ahead
This friendly was a starting point, not a verdict. The boys now have a clear picture of the level they’re aiming for, and the coaching staff have a solid foundation to build from.

With more sessions, more minutes, and the full squad available, the Under‑16s will grow stronger week by week.

A Message to the Squad
You showed character, effort, and togetherness — exactly what matters at this stage. Keep working, keep learning, and keep believing in yourselves. Nights like this are where real development begins.

The season is long, and this team has everything it needs to progress.

1st August 2026 – Harmswork Park, Wick

Saturday 1st August 2026
 
Wick Academy 0 Strathspey Thistle 2
 
Strathspey Thistle made the 270-mile round trip to Harmsworth Park, Wick, on Saturday 1st August and returned home with a memorable victory.
 
“The Strathy Jags” recorded their second win ever against Wick Academy at the ground where they played their first Highland League match, also on 1st August back in 2009. It was also the first time Wick Academy had failed to score against Strathspey Thistle on their home ground.
 
The overall record between the two clubs now stands at:
Played: 31
Wick Academy wins: 23
Strathspey Thistle wins: 5
Draws: 3
Goals: Wick Academy 104, Strathspey Thistle 35
 
Strathspey Thistle, playing their first Breedon Group Scottish Highland League fixture in their new yellow and royal blue away strip, produced some superb football despite the heavy rain showers.
 
The visitors almost made the perfect start in the third minute when Josh Race went close to giving Strathspey the lead, only to see his effort come back off the frame of the goal when it looked certain to go in.
 
Strathspey’s pressure finally paid off just after the half-hour mark. A good move was rounded off when Josh Race set up ROBBIE THOMPSON, who made no mistake to put the visitors ahead.
 
The Jags could, and perhaps should, have extended their lead before half-time, but they went in at the interval 1-0 in front.
 
Wick Academy came more into the match in the second half, but despite enjoying more of the ball, they never really tested trialist
Strathspey Thistle goalkeeper Ross Laidlaw.
 
With just two minutes remaining, substitute Shaun Morrison produced a powerful run and cross to set up the in-rushing ANDREW GRIEG, who fired the ball back across goal and into the far corner of the net for his first goal for Strathspey Thistle.
 
The photo shows him wheeling away in celebration after sealing a fantastic away win.
 
This result sets Strathspey Thistle up nicely for the visit of Buckie Thistle to Seafield Park on Wednesday night, with kick-off at 8pm.
