Junior Youth League
Training
at Castlefort
Local
headmistress, Mrs Joanne Wilson, whose son, Harry plays for our
2009/10 Season under 10's team has very kindly obtained permission
from the Castlefort Primary School Board of Governors to allow
our teams to use facilities at the School for training purposes
over the summer months, during weekday evenings and weekends.
The School football pitch is presently being used on Wednesday
evenings by Pelsall's under nines team and pupils from the school
are invited to participate in training sessions as a gesture of
gratitude on behalf of the Club. The School premises may also
be made available to our Academy (ages 4 and older) and negotiations
are in progress. The School is ideally enclosed and is located
in Castlefort Road, Walsall Wood, Walsall, West Midlands,
WS9 9JP..

Under-Thirteens
Manager for the 2009/10 Season, Gareth Lloyd has been appointed
the new Club Secretary following a unanimous vote from the Committee
at the monthly meeting on the 7th July. Gareth, who has recently
been standing in for former secretary Steve Coyne will be undertaking
the arduous task of dealing with the day-to-day problems which confront
the club. As Secretary he will provide the main point of contact
for people within and outside the club on just about every aspect
of the club’s activities including affiliating the club to
the County FA, registering the club and players to the league(s),
dealing with correspondence, organising and booking match/training
facilities for the season, dealing with Local Authority Legislation
and numerous other duties. Gareth will not be taking over Steve's
"Soccer Sevens" duties however, this is now to be carried
out by Club Chairman Darren. It also is unlikely he will be involved
with the publishing of match fixtures and reports. Full details
of all match fixtures can still be found on new the Club Website,
which is now cross-linked to the Walsall Junior Youth, Lichfield
Recreasional and Bilston Football League websites for easy reference,
along with the locations and directions to all the match venues.
Sarah Edwards has been appointed to the new post of Purchasing Manager
at the July meeting and all future acquisitions for the Club should
be channelled through her.
