Big Changes For Red and Yellow Cards

For 2012-13 The FA are introducing Match Based Discipline to Youth football. This means that if you receive for example a red card during a game you will receive a one, two, three or more match ban depending on the offence. It is the same punishments that you are familiar with from the Premier League.

Normally the ban will automatically apply 21 days after the offence though serious incidents can result in an immediate ban.

It is the responsibility of the offending player’s club to comply with the ban whether they receive paperwork or not. This is significantly different from the old regime where a ban was only applied if and when paperwork was received. A Club is deemed to have player an illegible player whether they have received paperwork or not.

 

Please note that this disciplinary process applies across Youth football and this includes school matches. Surrey FA have now stated that disciplinary  process for school and club football is not connected. A Suspension in one does not affect the other.

 

 

More information is available from Surrey FA.

New Look For SheenLions.com

Since its launch in 2008 SheenLions.com has be hosted on by 1&1 and is built using 1&1 proprietary WebsiteBuilder tool. We have had four good years but it was time to move. We have re-built SheenLions.com with WordPress and it is now hosted by TSO Hosts.

We are still SheenLions.com and you still have access to the same information but the page appearance is slightly different. In particular you will see a new menu structure and we hope this will make it easier to locate information that you need. There is a dedicated menu for fast access to the team pages.

Google is by far the main search engine that people use to route to SheenLions.com. It may take Google a little while to learn about the new site and rank it well, however its links to the old site will continue to land on the appropriate new pages.

As always, if you have any problems with or comments about SheenLions.com contact the webmasters, webmaster@sheenlions.org

Boots For Africa Charity Appeal

Once again Sheen Lions FC is to contribute to the following charity.




Maia Dickson ( U14s) has very kindly said she will help me coordinate collection and delivery.
The timing is good as it is the end of the season, tournaments have been played and old boots will be replaced for new ready for the forthcoming season.

The aim is that every registered Sheen Lions boy donates a minimum of one pair of boots.
Of course you can donate more.
I’m sure if you ask family and friends they will have old boots lying around in porches, under the stairs, and in garages too.

Collect what you can, give them a clean and take them to:

Maia Dickson

We’ll do the rest.

Sheen Lions have teams from U7 all the way up to U18. For more details and information about all our other age groups visit www.sheenlions.com

Sheen Lions are an FA Charter Standard youth football club in the Sheen, Richmond, Kew, Roehampton area of South-West London. We are affiliated to the Surrey County FA and we provide coaching and organised match programmes for around 300 children from the age of 6 to 18 years.

By taking these steps we will have more resources available to offer the best possible youth football experience in our local community whilst making sure we are fully in tune with The FA’s youth football requirements.

End Of The Season

Sheen Lions finished the 2011-12 season with our Presentation evenings on the 17th May for the older teams and 23rd May for the younger age groups. This year 548 people came to the events and we gave out 370 trophies.

Football is a team game and each player depends on his team mates but for fun we do give out some special awards to boys in each team and you can see the Special Player Awards List here.

The Presentation evening is the one event in the year when the Club comes together and as always the Club showed its appreciation for the huge amount of time and effort that our Secretary Sarah Street puts in to enable so many children to play football.

Afterwards Sarah said:
“I also want to thank you all for you kind words and gifts. Wine, champagne, chocolates, flowers and jewellery in abundance. They are genuinely appreciated. I think I must be the luckiest Club Secretary in the League to have such a great bunch of people to work with.


Your support and help over the season and particularly in recent times has been terrific. Thank you. There’s a lot to do right now in preparation for next season but I know with us all working hard and pulling in the same direction, the work will get done and we can look forward to another terrific season in 2012/13.


Lastly, I want to thank Geoff for everything he has done. I couldn’t have a better right hand man working alongside me, and I know we are all sending our love and best wishes to Jane and the family and wishing Geoff the very speediest of recoveries. I’m certain we’ll have him back on the touchline, where he belongs, in no time.”


SheenLions.com would particularly like to echo Sarah’s thoughts for Geoff. He has written most our our weekly News bulletins this season and this is only one of the many things he does to help build our Club and support all the people at Sheen Lions.

A particular Congratulations to our teams that collected League medals today at Imber Court.

  • Nidal Ramini’s U9 Lions
  • Brian Robertson’s U16 Lions
  • John O’Brien’s U18 Lions

Team Of The Week and Presentation Evening Photos

There is no Sheen Lions football to report today. We only had one Sheen Lions match scheduled, for U15 Lions and it did not take place as our opponents told us that they could not field a side.

 

There is now only one Sheen Lions match left this season so good luck to our U12 Lions who will play on the last day of the season.

 

The Senior Presentation evening will be on Thursday 17th May and the Junior on Wednesday 23rd May, both at the Bank of England Sports Club. We would like to display photos of each team from the season. If you have any photos you would like to contribute please contact webmaster@sheenlions.org.

 

Team of the week are the U16 Pride for making their League Cup final a very close game.

U14 Recruitment For Season 2012-13

Our U13 boys football teams have had a solid season with mid table finishes for both our teams in the Surrey Youth League Divisions two and three respectively.

During May and June we will organise the teams for the 2012-13 season where they will again play competitive football as U14s in the Surrey Youth League and there is an opportunity for boys of a good standard to join the squads.

We will have training sessions throughout the Summer term and play competitively in five or six a-side tournaments. This gives us a good  opportunity to introduce new players.We encourage boys who are interested to contact us sooner rather than later. Squads for next season are largely decided by the end of June.

To play at U14 next season you must be born between 1st September 1998 & 31st Aug 1999.
