Team news

Under-7 Team (Manager: Sue Smith – 791463, Coach: Rachel Hopper)
Sue and Rachel have already done an excellent recruiting job for the youngest league team: twelve
players have already registered and there could be another three before the season starts on 9
September.
Under-8 Team (Manager: Angela Raymond – 791225, Coach: Dave Berwick)
It is not long since the team finished training after an exciting first season in the league, and two very
enjoyable tournaments. Training is due to start again on 2 September, ready for the first league
match the following week. The team is very short of players, so if you know of anyone else who will
be in Year 3 and enjoys their football, please let Angela know.
Under-9 Team (Manager: Simon James – 791287, Coaches: Per-Axel Worensjo, Jay Frederick)
“Big congratulations” to the coaches, parents and boys of last year’s under-8 team for winning the
sportsmanship award for their age group – a superb achievement. The first match of the season is
on 2 September at Pewsham (near Chippenham), with training starting on Monday 27 August from
6pm to 7pm at the Rec.
Under-10 Team (Manager: Andy Bryant – 790877, Coach: Andre Smague)
The under-9 team had a long hard season, and have another tough campaign coming up with
fourteen teams in their division. We'll be running training twice a week on Tuesday evenings and
Sunday mornings. Training will start at the Rec on Tuesday 7 August at 6pm and on Sunday 12
August at 10am. Please put these dates in your diaries!
Under-11 (Manager: Shaun Hobbs – 791435)
After playing a few competitive 11-a-side friendlies at the end of the season, training for the under-10
team will start on 14 August from 7pm to 8pm at the Rec. There will also be an hour’s training on the
following Sunday, starting at 10am.
Under-12 (Manager: Rob Reeves – 791465)
Well done to the Wasps’ under-11 team who ended the season by reaching the final of the White
Horse tournament on 8 July. The most exciting game was the semi-final which went to a penalty
shoot-out. Just when the Wasps needed a hero, up stepped Jonny Mullins to score his first goal for
the Club. The final was another good performance, with the Wasps losing a closely fought game by
a single goal. A great ending to the season and well done to all of the squad.
Under-13 (Manager: Jon Raymond – 791225, Coaches: Lee Herring and Pete Brittain)
It’s a scary thought that they’ll be teenagers next season! As the team is in a small division, all the
league matches could be over before the spring monsoon, so there could be a few friendlies or minileagues
in the new year. Training will start at the Rec at 7pm on Thursday 16 August.
Best wishes to all the teams in the league next season!
