LITCHAM  SPORTS YOUTH  GROUP

Report for Litcham Parish Annual Meeting held on 16 May 2005



Football 2004/05 has, as previous years broken all records. Youth Club numbers on Tuesday evenings increased considerably. Football on Saturdays and Sundays has continued to grow. We fielded six teams in leagues and three in friendlies.
But wait for it!!!...
There will be
eight teams in leagues next year from Under 8's to 15's with at least two others playing friendlies.

Tennis has just started and everybody is having a great time, with good attendances.

Cricket continues successfully and this year we are for the first time playing in two Norfolk leagues at Under 1 1's and 13's With Fakenham, Dereham, Bradenham and Matishall as opponents, we will be really tested against some of the County's best. The Under 15's are playing in the Narborough Cup.
Talking of County, we are very pleased that three of our young cricketers have been included in County squads. This follows two of our footballers who played for Norfolk at under 14 & 15. This season it means that we have now 'topped' the fifty mark in County Honours (tennis, football, cricket) in my thirty five years as Youth Leader. I am really 'chuffed'. Who says these country boys' can't play?!!
As usual we will be holding our annual sports activity week in the first week of the school summer holiday.
Finally my sincere and grateful thanks to all the marvellous helpers, team managers and coaches for all their wonderful hard work and support. All this would not be possible without your help.

Richard Bailey, Youth Leader
