New Season

Hi Everyone,


Welcome to the new season (Doesn't time fly) with our first game on Sunday 6th September at Flint Town Football ground (Pitch permitting) Kick Off 11:00, against the 'Old Firm' Flint & Bagillt Colts.

There are some changes to the format this year (Under 9's) These are :- 8 a side, game duration one hour against one side with three twenty minute matches or similar, home games at Flint Town United football ground or Flint High School, size 4 match balls.

The training sessions have continued throughout the Summer with the aim of introducing and familiarising the new signings with the rest of the boys, in preparation for the new season. Hopefully we will have twelve players signed on by the end of the week (Yes I know the transfer window is closed) and this will be the maximum number of players that we will have for the season. This will give us greater flexibility in being able to cope with whatever the season will throw at us, and what a great bunch of guys we have.
The new players are:- Ryan (Dollo to the boys), Dan and hopefully Sam by the end of the week.
Also, welcome back to Lewis who has been on his travels throughout the Summer, mainly to Crewe Alexandra Academy. Hopefully he will bring the experience gained at Crewe back to the team, which can only be positive.

And not to mention our new kit and rain jackets (these will definitely come in handy) which was purchased with a kind donation from UK Exhibitions, who's name will be featured on the front panel of the shirt. Although we have maintained the traditional club colours of black and white, we have been slightly outrageous and varied the theme on the shirts, which I think look very smart.
A big thank you must go to Ang (WAG & Charlie's Mum) for sourcing the sponsor and ordering the kit.

So, it's on to the game on Sunday, I know that Steve and I are looking forward to it and I am certain the boys are well up for it....See you there.

Mark.
