The lads finally play their first organised match on September the 7th ; albeit in a friendly format for the first 2 seasons. It will be great to see them line up for their first official 5-a-side games and I really hope that they enjoy it . It will be a good experience for them travelling to different pitches and playing against all these different teams (16 in our league at last count). and myself and Simon are looking forward to seeing
how they progress over the course of the season. Win, Lose or Draw it is important that we give these lads our full support and encourage them all the way ; irrespective of the result I feel sure that these lads will do themselves and the team proud.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Matt Ward at Dudley Building Society for agreeing to sponsor our team and also Mark Richards for putting it all in place. Their kind gesture enabled us to buy the home kit and training shirts and was greatly appreciated by all connected to the team. I would also like to thank Gary and Sam for their efforts in organising our
fundraising night ; this helped to raise £400 and we were able to buy our goals and rainjackets with this. They were well supported by various people within our team and also several companies contributed raffle prizes - again thank you all. It goes without saying that without this support teams like ours would not survive ; apologies to anybody that I haven't
mentioned.

Enjoy the season !
