I think you are right about Bodenham, I'm not aware of him having played for the Development team before - he's only broken into the Under 18s this season. He came on for Jordan Blaise early on and he and Connor Young were a very inexperienced centreback pairing for this level, but they both did well - one of them may have let their man go for the equaliser because the scorer was in a lot of space, but overall, they coped well.
Great that Bodenham and Young are being given a chance above their age grade at least and let's hope can step up ahead of time. And hopefully the later can emulate his old man.

Found this on Wootton on the acdemy website...
