We finished last season 4th in Division 2 of NNYL winning most of our games and scoring freely.
A summer of changes saw Henry Guest leave to join Calverton, Matthew Hill move to the U10 Reds and Alec Boaden give up league football. This left us with 6 players! So far we have signed Luka Richmond Dixon who is currently playing in goal for us, and Sam Thomason who is a scoring midfield player. We are hoping to register two more players to give us a squad of 10.
So it's the 2009-2010 season and we find ourselves in a different league wearing a different kit. We are in the Young Elizabethan League, Saturday Division 3 Blue. Google 'Young Elizabethan Football League' to find the league table. We are still called the Rossoneri to differentiate us from the U10 Reds and U10 Blacks, but we wear blue and black stripes! If you look for us on the YEL website we are listed in the league as Lowdham Colts.
Greg Almond is now the manager and arranges fixtures etc and Trevor Lee is coach, responsible for the team on match days. We are still linked to the U10 Reds run by Mike Palethorpe and train alongside them on Wednesday nights at The Mugga in Lowdham, 6:00-7:30p.m. Mike, Scott, Jamie and Malc coach the Reds and the Rossoneri on Wednesday evenings and the plan is to form one 11 a-side squad next season.
Current squad is:
Josh Almond (7) Midfielder
Jacob Betts (6) Defender/Midfielder
Ben Jamson (3) Defender
James Lee (8) Midfielder
Isaac McVeigh (10) Striker
Alex Nuthall (5) Midfieder/Defender
Luka Richmond-Dixon (2) Goalkeeper
Sam Thomason (11) Midfielder
