Costessey (Away), 7 September 2008

Costessey -v- Wymondham Town United

Result: 1 - 5 Win

Wymondham Town United U13 had a great start to the season beating Costessey 5-1 away.

The team settled in quickly with some excellent passing. It was 12 minutes in when Jack Morris scored from a precise Ben Swallow throw. The game continued at pace with the back four working hard and as a unit. Within a minute of the first goal Alex Wilson cleared up field to let a composed Harvey White break free to put one over the keeper. This was followed by some brilliant link up play with Joe Bush going for goal and Jack Morris leaving no doubt to see the ball into the net.

With the only mistake of the match Costessey found the net from a corner by finding the ball first. Jack Morris celebrated his hat-trick when Nick Parker curled one into the box for an exemplary finish.

Second half and up hill, Wymondham held their ground and started the half as they left off, with Joe Bush finding the net after a brilliant long pass from Josh Mellor, to make it 5.

Throughout the game both keepers made some very useful saves to keep Wymondham on top.

Man of the Match was awarded to Jack Morris.

The squad would like to thank Oaktree Flexible Business Units of Wymondham for their continued support in sponsoring them through to 2011.


United Under 12s Update, 18 March 2008

Training

Training this Saturday is at Ketts Park from 10.00am to 11.00am.

Fixtures

There are no matches this Sunday as it’s Easter Sunday.

Parents’ Meeting

The parents’ meeting was a great success thanks to all the Lizards’ parents who made it along with the two parents from the United squad. I can only assume you are generally happy with our plans… For those of you who couldn’t be there, here is the Parents’ Evening Presentation (268kb PDF)

Under 12s United End of Season Party

As we will be merging with the Lizards at the end of the season for the Under 13s and beyond, we have a balance left in our team ‘kitty’ that we should use up on the boys. To that end, I have arranged a party at Norwich City from 3.30pm to 6.00pm on Sunday, May 4th. From 3.30pm until 5.00pm, the boys will receive some training at Carrow Park. At 5.00pm they will go to eat the packed tea you will need to have provided for them, please, and at 5.30pm they will have a full tour of Norwich City football ground until 6.00pm.

There will be no cost to the boys but you will need to make arrangements to get them there and to pick them up afterwards.

Wymondham Town United Presentation Event

This will take place at the Wymondham Leisure Centre from 6.00pm until 9.00pm on Sunday, May 11th. A family ticket for the event will cost £10 and tickets will be available to buy from me shortly.

I need to know urgently who each player wishes to vote as their Player of the Year, please.

WTUFC Constitution Rules & Codes of Conduct

These have been printed and are ready to be collected from me. Participation in any match or training session requires acceptance by the players, their parents/guardians and any spectator associated with any player.


United and Lizards Under 12s Parents Meeting

The coaches of both Under 12s squads - the Lizards and United - will be holding a Parents Meeting from 7.30pm until 9.00pm in the function room upstairs at the Queens Head on Friday, 14 March 2008.

The purpose of the meeting is to keep the parents up to date with developments within Wymondham Town United Football Club including a general club update, our FA Charter Mark status and an update on developments concerning our home ground, Ketts Park.

We will have a recap of our seasons so far before bringing you up to speed with our plans for the 2008/2009 Under 13s season and beyond. This will encompass the planned move to one squad, its structure, training dates - particularly important for those parents whose lads study at Wymondham College and the Club’s team selection policy.

We will then move on to discuss the WTUFC Presentation Event on Sunday 11 May 2008, a summer training event for the Under 13s and summer tournaments.

An agenda will be handed out at tomorrow’s matches.
