UNDER 10 HALF SEASON REVIEW
Wellingborough Town Under 10s have enjoyed their best ever start to a season and are really starting to gel as a team.

We have been fortunate to recruit several new players this
season Taylor, Zak and Ryan all of whom have fitted in to the squad very nicely.

All though mini soccer in ‘non competitive’ in that all games are classed as
friendly's it is very encouraging to see the results improving year on year.

	Played	Won	Lost	Draw
2004	9	0	7	2
2005	13	7	5	1
2006	10	5	3	2

Special mention to:

Charlie Who has been immense at the back and my player of the season
so far. Chipped in with a few goals too.

Joseph for leading the team and working hard on his
communication.

Ben for working really hard on his passing and non stop running.

Ijuha for the number of chances he creates with his unselfish play.
Jack for his goals including three hat tricks, and improving his work
rate.

Brady for making the opposition strikers lives a misery with some fantastic marking.

Matthew P for playing in every position that is asked of him and not complaining once.

Matthew H and Taylor for their enthusiasm, good attitude in training and trying hard to improve all areas of their game.

Zak for sticking with us whilst he was not in the squad, trying hard to improve and finally breaking into the team.

Ryan for setting up a few goals in the short time he has been with us and never letting his head drop.

Great job boys! I am sure the second half of the season will be
just as much fun and will prepare us for our first competitive
season next year.

UNDER 11 LEADING GOAL SCORERS

UNDER 11 HALF SEASON REVIEW
So far this season we have played 11 games to date.

Wellingborough Town Under 11's enjoyed a great start to the season which promised a lot. Unfortunately over the past month we have not done ourselves justice with the performances we have put in. We need to start the new year on the same note as we did at the start of the season. Second place in the league is still a target we can achieve.

Special Mention to the following players

Nathan Dolphin great progress made throughout the season very consistence and always gives 110%.

Jack Osbourne some excellent performances holding the defence together throughout the season

Jack Jones our goalkeeper who has produced some out standing performances keeping us in many games .

Liam Chowney after recovering from a broke his fitness is return now as well as his goals work rate has been great over the last month keep it up.

Conner Davies a great asset to the team skill and pace with some great performances to date.

Tarek Hajri with pace to burn and a eye for the goal he always stand a chance to score if given the chance.

Rhys Griffiths very versatile player can play at the back or up front playing some great games so far this year.

Jack Jones grit and determination and a major part of our midfield good solid performances though season.

Dale Kitchley has shown some good progress thought-out season a good team player.

Matthew Watts a jewel in the crown great reader of the game with some outstanding performance to date.

Daniel Wade some excellent performances to date with a great partnership with Matty in defence.

Kyle Edwards has shown some good progress thought-out season just needs to be a bit more confidence in himself as he has the skill.

Lacum Redden has shown some good progress thought-out season a good team player.

Callum Souster has shown some good progress thought-out season a good team player.

Leah Talbot grit and determination and a major part of our midfield good solid performances though season.

I believe we have made some good progress this year with some players developing into good solid skilful players. Going forward to next year we need to be more confident on the ball and to play the simple ball.

Well done to all the players for their efforts so far this season but after the xmas break we must be ready for a big push to grasp second place.

A big thank you to all the parents / relatives for braving all kinds of weather to watch their kids compete in the games this season so far

Thanks

Phil Chowney & Paul Jones

The Under 9's are looking for some adult help to support in refereeing our home fixtures. No experience is needed as the idea is to let the game be the teacher.

Training Base
So that we can get as many age groups as possible training in the same location, we have been fortunate enough to secure
the facilities of Sir Christopher Hatton School as a central training base.

The playing surface at Sir Christopher Hatton is a lot better than that at Castle Fields and there is a lot less danger of broken glass, dog mess and all other sorts of unpleasant things!

Having a single training base also makes it easier for parents with children of different ages and saves then having to drop their sons and daughters off to different locations.
Training will continue to be at the same time as present.

Membership Card
This season all players will be issued with a membership card.
If presented at the gate of the Dog & Duck during a 1st team fixture, reserve team fixture or Under 18 fixture it will entitle the holder to free entry to the ground. It is hoped that we will see as many of the Youth Team players and their families as possible at first team games. Forthcoming home fixtures include;

Saturday 16th September—Buckingham
Saturday 23rd September—St Neots
Saturday 30th September—Newport Pagnell
