Captains Comment:

Glyn 2nd XI had a strong finish towards the end of last season, it is my ambition to continue this very good run of results for this year with a large portion of the same players and add into that mix a few new faces in order to strengthen us and give us more consistent results. If we can get this, then this season I think we are more than capable of winning the division or at the very least get promoted.

Problems that we have had in the past have been getting the same group of players to play together over a prolonged part of the season. Throughout last year many of us had injuries and other commitments that meant that the same team rarely played from week to week. Chris Eagle did a great job in getting the team that far up the league with the number of players he had available each week. I hope that his good work doesn’t go to waste and we improve further still and take us up a division. As a 2nd XI side we should be in a much higher division than we are, where we can challenge other 2nd XI sides in the cup competitions and also provide decent support for our 1st XI.

Glyn 2nd XI is in Division 2 South this year and after the league reshuffle and the normal promotion and relegation from last season, we will be playing against 7 new sides. 3 of these teams come from the old LFFA – Nat West Bank, Coutts and Co and Chistlehurst Sports. Hopefully they will provide the sort of away fixture that everyone will look forward to – good pitches with good opposition.

I’m really looking forward to the season. Potentially we have a very good side and I just hope that our early enthusiasm continues throughout the year.
