The Inaugural AJF was not as hectic as other festivals, but excellently organised and hosted on Altrincham FC’s Moss Lane pitch. The Rockets squad: Jack, Adam, Joseph, Tom, Jamie, Matty, Russ and a guest appearance from Sam Owens. As Cameron was away, Jack returned to goalkeeping duties, conceding only 1 goal in the group stages. The Rockets were placed in the elite group and played against stiff opposition from Divisions 1 and 2. However a sound defence, a cavalier approach to attack saw Adam score his first goal of the season and along with Jamie, ensured that the Rockets progressed through to the Semi finals. The Rockets won the quarter finals on penalties after extra time, but sadly loosing the semi final to the eventual winners Communities Utd from Division 2 on penalties after the teams cancelled each other out during normal and extra time.

The awful weather during the beginning of June meant that the 2007 BHF had to be postponed. Unfortunately BH were unable to re-arrange the festival before August, and due to holidays etc, it was re-arranged for the last weekend of the Summer holidays. Sadly a number of Rockets were unavailable and a few guests were invited.
The Squad: Jack, Jamie, Russell, Adam Grewer, Joseph, Tom, Jordan and a friend of Jacks called Nial. The Rockets lost their first two games, one being to the Jets, followed by a draw. A change of formation in the last three games saw a turn of fortune for the team and they took control of them, beating FC Sporting Sale 2-0, Bocca Jnrs 1-0 and Lymn Rovers 2-0.
