Training & Garforth Tournament
Friday Training at Riverside will be taking place at 6:00pm this coming Friday 6th and following Friday 13th, prior to our final competitive appearance (for 2008) at the Garforth/Swillington Tournament on Sunday 15th June. For info - we need to be at Swillington Miners Welfare Club for 9:30am on Sunday 15th June.
Press & Ulleskelf A-Team Victory
For anyone who didn't see it, we had a two page spread in Saturday's York Press (in tandem with the report in the Wetherby News, provided to both papers by Sharon). I'll be scanning this report and putting it on the blog along with pictures and details of the U10's A-Team triumph at Ulleskelf.
New Season - 2 Teams
It will soon be time for me to register the teams for the 2008-09 season for agegroups of Under 7's up to Under 16's.
Mick is keen to use the nucleus of the current A & B Teams to form a strong U11 Team for next season and Nick Devine is actively recruiting another team for this agegroup to run alongside (though obviously dates & venues will differ for the 2 teams matches).
Nick Devine has already been able to secure the services of some star signings from Wistow and would welcome any introductions to eligible players that you may know of. We will be co-ordinating a major recruitment offensive in the next few weeks, but in the meantime if you are aware of anyone that may be interested, they can contact Nick Devine direct on: 01937 832331 or 07950 800212 or email Devinenicholas@aol.com
Tadcaster Albion Tournament 2008
The Tadcaster Albion Junior Football Tournament at Riverside on 17th & 18th May 2008 made a profit of £4,726 - which is £466 UP on last year! - Many thanks to the people who gave their time and effort - we can always use more help with this function - the pre-planning, the actual weekend and the workload afterwards are massively time consuming for the 10 or 12 people who take the burden of the responsibility (all of which is done voluntarily, so that costs for parents are kept to a minimum for training, kits, insurance etc throughout the season).
Collection of Kits
I'll be collecting in all of the Under 10's kits after the Garforth/Swillington Tournament - if you don't want to change on the day of the tournament could you please drop the washed kit in to me at Beech House, 49 Garnet Lane, Tadcaster, LS24 9LD. http://www.multimap.com/maps/?hloc=GBLS24%209LD We'll be topping up identical kits for the 'new' under 9's,10's and 11's, so it is imperative that we have these back in good time so that we can co-ordinate the sizing and squad numbers for the new kits. You don't want me 'cold calling' you like Gordon Brown do you?
Thanks in advance
Nick Brown
Tadcaster Albion JFC Treasurer/Acting Secretary
