Lyne F.C are challenging for honours in 2010!!

8 out of our 10 sides at Lyne FC are in the top three of their Divisions and in a strong position to collect silverware at the end of the season.

Lyne FC  roundup.

The Under 9’s Lions have had a tremendous start to their first season of competitive football, they sit top of their Division in the Surrey Primary League.

The Lions have only lost one League match, so far this season and are averaging an incredible 4.2 goals a game.
Matt the Manager has a truly talented bunch of lads and I am sure they will do very well this season and win their first silverware early next year.

The Under 11’s Panthers are a newly formed team for this season at 7-a-side.
Joe the Manager has done a fantastic job in getting the team together in the latter part of the summer and started the season with only a handful of players.
The Club is very proud of the Panthers achievements, so far and the introduction of a number of girls into the team has been a big boost the Panther’s and Club.
I am sure if the Panther’s continue to progress they will secure their first victory in the very near future.

The Under 11’s Jaguars had a similar start to the season with a very small squad, but this has now expanded thanks to Mark’s hard work.
The Jaguars are sitting in third place at the moment and with the hard work continuing, the Jaguars will be in jockeying for honours   at the end of the season.

The Under 12’s Pumas are the first ever team from Lyne FC to enter the Berkshire League, and are proving to be a great success.
The Pumas moved up a division after three successive large victories, since then they are doing the same again in the division higher and are already in second position, and as yet unbeaten.

Ian and Phil have done a fantastic job in putting this Saturday side together. The whole idea of Saturday football is proving to be a massive success.

Once again I would expect with things going well, Silverware and honours to be won by the Pumas at the end of the season.

The Under 12’s Vapour’s this season are playing their football in the Surrey Youth League which is also another first for Lyne FC.
The Vapour’s knew this season was going to be stepping stone to a much stronger League, but the Vapour’s had nothing to fear as Ian and the player’s hard work in the summer has paid off.

The Vapour’s are second in the division at present and are in a good position to achieve silverware in 2010.

The Under 12’s Predator’s play in the Surrey Primary League in a very competitive division and they are proving, as per the other under 12’s,  that they will not be outdone and are presently sitting third in the division.

Phil has continued to progress the lads and I have a feeling they too will have a very strong shout at promotion and honours this season.

The Under 13’s Predators also play in the Surrey Primary and seem to get stronger and stronger as the season progresses.
Mick has done an outstanding job in putting this squad back together and I am sure with no doubt in my mind,  they will gain promotion and silverware this season.

The Under 16’s Silver team has been going for some years and thoroughly enjoying every match they play in the Surrey Primary League.

The Silver team is currently 5th in the division but, my tip is they can produce a shock in their division and I predict they can gain honours this year.

Pat has done a sterling job over the years and deserves silverware in his vast cabinet at home.

Under 16’s Elite (S.P.L) the newly named Elite team in the Surrey Primary League are sitting top of their division and are looking to gain promotion to the Premier League.

This team has improved tremendously and has shown all the hallmarks of a top side.
Dave has worked constantly with these lads to build a desire from the boys, to win every match and I don’t think that will change in 2010 and expect silverware from this side at the end of the season.


Under 16’s Elite (S.Y.L) The Surrey Youth Elite team has had a great start to the season and is currently third in very competitive Premier division.
The Elite team has strengthened their squad over the last few weeks and things going well will be battling it out for first place at the end of the season.

An outstanding half year of achievement!!!

Lyne FC is the new Club on the block and as you can see after reading the above we are quickly becoming very successful.
This is due to good Coaches, generous sponsors, very kind helpers, committed and flexible parents and of course honest and genuine boys and girls that enjoy playing the great game of football.

Can I take this opportunity to wish the coaches, helpers, sponsors, parents and most importantly all Lyne players a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

Thanks for making all this possible.

Seasons Greetings

Nigel

For and on behalf of the Lyne FC  Committee

PS : A note to committee members,  I feel we might need to buy a large trophy cabinet in May!!!
