Coaches Corner

Some enforced changes and and some tactical changes are made this week. We had over 30 lads training which was awsome and lots of players are knocking on the first team door. This is important for the season as rotation will be key to keeping the cup and league campaigns strong. Big squads are needed and we are not a first and second team club we are one team with one vision and anyone that gets on a pitch with the badge on or turns up to training is helping to reach the targets set.

More debuts are handed out this week to and some returning players are welcomed in to.

All support is welcome as the mighty Wheats look to start the league campaign with a bang.
