End Of Season – Boots, Sheen Lions Shirts And Registration For Next Season

Registration

The season is over but as most of you will know we are busy getting ready for the next. We are busy registering boys for next years squad. Not all teams have sent out Registration Invites yet, trials may still be in progress, but most invites should be out before the end of June.

Next season may seem a long way away but Sarah has to register the core of all the  teams with the League in a few weeks. Once you have received your invitation please deal with it promptly. After you have registered on-line you must gather together all your paperwork and send it in to Sarah. That is PROPER photos, COPY of Proof of Age, and PAYMENT. If you miss any of these Sheen Lions just cannot register you, we all waste time trying to sort you out., and you may well miss the start of the season AND will have to fill in more forms.

You must also see your Manager and sign the team registration sheet.

Sheen Lions Shirts

Your Managers should have collected in your Sheen Lions shirt already but if they have not you must get it to them now. Sheen Lions will be donating these shirts to Charity and they will go to children who need them far more than us so please make sure that you do this. If you playing tournaments then your Manager will give out shirts for  the day.

New shirts will be issued for next season and the rumour is that they will no longer be hoops so we might be renaming some of the squads.

Old Boots

It is the end of the season and you may have grown out of your boots or be getting some nice new ones for the new season. Again there are people in the world that will be very grateful for your old boots, often it will be the first pair they have ever had.

Please hang on to your boots over the Summer and at the start of the season we will let you know how to give them in to  David Hughes to be sent on to Kits4Causes.

Yes please to:  Clean football boots and astros, laces tied together
Clean football shirts
No thanks to:   Trainers, socks, shin pads, shorts

Sheen Lions U15 Win Wandgas Tournament

A last minute entry to the Wandgas Tournament proved a good decision despite struggling to get enough players. 10 teams were placed in two leagues of 5 with the top 2 in each progressing to the semi finals.
A solid start saw the Lions win their first game 2-0 before facing a very strong Sutton United. An early goal from Hady looked like it was going to seal the win for the Lions until Sutton equalised in the last minute. The Lions response was emphatic and a brilliant individual goal by Alex W sealed a second win.

Perhaps feeling the job was done the Lions somehow managed to lose to the bottom team 1-0 despite having 20 shots on target.
This meant they had to get a point off Corinthian Casuals, the league leaders who had won all 3 matches without conceding a goal. With 3 minutes to play the Lions were 2-0 down and heading home. Jack N then scored and in the last seconds Steffan scored a brilliant individual goal to secure the draw.

The semi final was quite straight forward with a 2-0 win taking us through to face Corinthian Casuals in the final. This time the boys were ready. Ivan & Tom B were strong in defence while Felix produced 3 outstanding saves. At the other end the Lions had found their shooting boots with Hady and Jack N grabbing 2 goals each to secure an emphatic 4-0 victory.

As always the evening started with the Club thanking all the coaches and many of the volunteers that are so vital in helping all our boys play football.

In deference to the importance of the A and AS level exams now under way the U18 age group were first on stage. For many of U18 Lions this is their last season for the Club and most of these boys have been with Sheen Lions since mini football.

Charlie P - First In Last Out

In a nice touch the U18 left the stage in reverse order of joining Sheen Lions. Last off the stage was Charlie P. Charlie started playing for Sheen Lions at the age of 5 and has been part of Sheen squads that have reached four major cup finals in the last five seasons. This season, not only has he won the Premier title and the Surrey County Cup with Sheen but also the Surrey Schools Cup and the London Independent Schools Cup and played in the National Independent Schools Cup final at Milton Keynes.
