Update on January

Hello everyone,

 

Hope that you are all well, it seems like such a long time ago that we played our last match away against Sidmouth!

 

I promised to give you a brief update on the next month or so and also to give some information for what will I suspect be a busy second half of the season.

 

The first thing to say is that we have now had to postpone three matches due to the bad weather and so these will be rearranged on Saturday’s when we have no fixtures.  Whilst every effort will be made to avoid school holidays it might not always be possible.  Anyone who looks at the league tables will see that our figures are wrong, I have emailed the league about this but as yet they haven’t been updated.

 

Our next match is next Saturday 16th January, a home fixture against Nigel Parker’s Redstar team.  They have invited us to play them so that they can get some practice playing 11 a-side and also think it will be a good opportunity for us to have to have some much needed match time.

 

The following week 23rd January we are due to be away against Colyton, however I am aware that we will be missing half of the squad who are at their annual Frisbee tournament and so I am trying my best to get this rescheduled.

 

We then have St Martins (home) on the 30th January.

 

As some of you are aware I have changed jobs last week and this will mean that I will be missing some of the midweek training sessions and occasional Saturdays.  John, as ever, has been very supportive and will be leading these sessions.  This starts with training on Wednesday 13th and 20th January.  I know the boys will give him their full attention and respect.

 

Any problems please let me know, I will see you on Saturday at King George V (if the weather improves!!)

 

Kind regards

Mark
