The club continues to grow in size, with over 130 players licensed to play for us. We have teams in the U14, U16 and U18 National conference leagues as well as U14 and U12 in the developing North West Regional league. We also continue to field teams in the Warrington Ball Hall leagues, and currently have U11 and U13 players competing. Our last season was a successful one, the highlight of which was the U16W team winning their conference league.
Our volunteers are the backbone of the club and we continue to invest in them to ensure they meet the standards set by BE. We very much value the commitment shown by our 14 coaches and 12 TMs. They, along with the committee, run the club with passion and dedication. I would like to take this opportunity to thank them for everything they do.
We have also invested in developing officials, training both referees and table officials. I would like to thank Salty and Sarah Williams for their continued support for the club. They are playing an invaluable role, helping us to develop officials for the future. We have also invested in a Veo sports camera and hope that this new technology will help our players and coaches to develop further.
Finally, we have been very fortunate to have a corporate sponsor who has kindly provided us with a new kit for every team. My thanks go to Signum Engineering and Cheshire Renewables for their generous donation. The teams are enjoying playing in their new kits.
That’s it for me for this year. Please go and check out our new website to see how we are doing this season. www.cheshirephoenixjuniors.co.uk
