It is with regret that we have to announce that we have had to disband our under 18 side for the forthcoming season. Unfortunately the managers had only been able to get 9 players signed up, and so the decision was taken to pull the plug. We would like to take this opportunity to thank the managers, Lewis Copeland and Marco Amaldi, for all their hard work over the past couple of years.

For the second time since the end of the season, there has been a change of leadership for the under 21s. Unfortunately, Alan Bolger and Tom Bullock found the work involved too much, and we are very grateful that Eamon Finn and Graeme Bourne have agreed to step back in and take charge once again. The under 21s played Greens United in a friendly a few days ago and ran out 3-2 winners.

The under 21s start their league campaign this coming Saturday, when they face a trip to play Sporting Hackney at Haggerstone Park. Meanwhile, the under 16s will commence their league season on Sunday 13th September with a new look side under the leadership of Paul McGreal, Nick McMullen and Liam Coogan-Jobes.
