14 Boys and Girls from Winwick Athletic FC were delighted to be invited to assist at the International Learning Disability European Championship match between Sweden and Germany at Curzon-Ashton Stadium, Ashton-under-Lyne and were entertained by some fantastic football. They also enjoyed a glorious sunny afternoon being looked after admirably by Michelle and Steph from Cheshire FA. The boys and girls from Winwick helped to lead the two teams onto the field of play and were photographed alongside their Player during the respective National Anthems. Commemorative T-Shirts and Medals were the reward for the hard work of the children who were also rewarded with compliments on their fantastic behaviour, so parents can all be proud that their children represented Winwick and themselves admirably.

| On Behalf of Aaron and myself, I would like to thank and congratulate the players within our Under 12 team for what has turned out to be a fantastic season.
This season has seen the team progress significantly, resulting with finishing 2nd in the league and also reaching the ¼ finals of the cup. This weekend we will be at Victoria Park where the team will be presented with their runners up trophy and individual medals. The presentation will start at 13:30, with everyone going back to Winwick Leisure Centre afterwards. We look forward to seeing everyone there and hope as many as possible can make it back to Winwick to celebrate with the team. Well Done, Brian & Aaron

| Girls Team Update |
Many thanks to Mark Livingston for having set things going earlier in the year down at Power League by encouraging Girls to train with his Mixed U8B Team. The Girls who attended those first 'taster training sessions' are pleasingly still together now and are looking towards competitive matches against other teams from 1st July when they become an U9 Girls Team. The Girls are now really looking forward to taking part in the Lancashire County FA Festival of Football Event at the County Ground up at Leyland in early May, where they will be mixed with Mark's U8B team to form 2 separate teams. That looks like being a great fun filled day. Many thanks to Kath Cookson, Brian Cookson and Paul McMahon for helping out at recent training sessions as we move towards establishment of a new Team Manager / Coach for the U9 Girls. The commitment of these Girls to developing their football skills supported by their parents also deserves full recognition. Any other Girls who are still aged 8 on 31st August 2008 are very welcome to come along to join us at Myddleton Lane on Wednesday evenings between 6.30pm to 7.30pm for training. In fact it should always be remembered that ALL Girls can play football in our teams here at Winwick, football is very much NOT a sport reserved for Boys !! |
