Middlesex Under 16 Team Trials

The first trials, to select players for the Middlesex Under16 squad for the forthcoming season, were held on Sunday morning at Heston Sports Centre (p

Ninety players featured and Manager Darrel Gyngell and his coaches worked diligently to select an interim preferred squad, following their observations of all of the players in a series of matches.   We are indebted to referees Keith Chamberlain and Luke Benjamin for their sympathetic and flexible handling of the games.

Further trials will be held at the same venue on Sunday, 4th Sep.   The players selected in the interim preferred squad will feature, together with any additional players not yet seen.   So, it is not too late to try for a place in the squad.   Interested players should contact Darrel (darrelg@tiscali.co.uk).

These trials will produce 2 sides to contest a trial match (A v B) at Uxbridge FC on Friday, 23rd Sep.    The squad for our opening match of the season, away to Berks and Bucks on Wed, 28th Sep will be selected after this game.
