Ringwood Town Youth 2015-16 Season - Newsletter #3 Welcome to the third newsletter of the season at Ringwood Town Youth. We are now well under way for the season with games coming thick and fast. As most of you will have experienced it is now getting incredibly busy at Long Lane particularly on match day where we are setting new records with up to 13 home games on a single day. A lot of effort goes into the planning and scheduling of these matches to accommodate the league, pitch, referee, manager and opposition requirements so please do bear with us if there are last minute alterations or kick off times are not ideal.

RINGWOOD TOWN ATTEND PREMIER LEAGUE LAUNCH DAY Ringwood Town was selected to represent AFC Bournemouth at the Sky Sports Premier League launch event in London in August 2015. The players, from our successful U16 team from last season, attended along with Eddie Howe, Tommy Elphick and Chairman Jeff Mostyn. This is another example of the fantastic links being built between the clubs that we hope to make even stronger as the season progresses. U12 TEAM LOOKING FOR A GOALKEEPER The U12 Bournemouth team are urgently in need of a goalkeeper to join their team. If you know anyone who may be interested please let us know. As well as joining a vibrant team they can also benefit from the expertise of our resident goalkeeping coach Alec Wimbleton. U7 TEAM LOOKING FOR AN ADDITIONAL TEAM MANAGER Unsuccessful in your application to replace Brendan Rodgers ? Not prepared to travel to Sunderland to replace Dick Advocaat ? If so the solution may be closer than you think. We have two teams at Under 7 level but already have enough players attending training to create a third team. There are a bunch of committed and willing players looking for a manager to come and set up and run a team. If you are interested and can commit to running a team please let us know. RINGWOOD TOWN GIRLS TEAM - NEW SPONSORS Ringwood Town Girls Football team are pleased to announce new sponsors for the forthcoming season. For their inaugural season, all the U12 girls kit is supplied by Nomical Networks and the U13 girls training jackets will be supplied by Accolade Building Care Ltd., a local Ringwood company. On behalf of both football teams, huge thanks are extended to both companies. Recent growth means the girls now have two teams: U12’s playing in the New Forest Girls Football League (NFGFL), playing on Saturday mornings, managed by AJ Bessant and U13’s playing in the Dorset Girls league, playing on Saturday mornings, managed by Derek Pepperell. Other recent news from the girls team - they secured their first trophy during a recent tournament in June. The girls were extremely proud to have been placed 3rd having valiantly defeated a number of teams during the day. August also saw a 23 strong Ringwood Girls group inspired whilst attending the women’s FA cup final at Wembley, to watch Chelsea beat Notts County. This follows on from last season’s trip to watch England Ladies vs Germany. The club are actively seeking new players for the coming season (ages 8-13 years). For more information, please contact Derek Pepperell.
