Sheen Lions March On To The Quarters Of The Surrery County Cup

Cup fever struck Sheen Lions as two teams progressed through the Quarter Finals of this prestigious competition.

The Under 18’s had a good win against a strong Kew Association side winning 3-1 after extra time. Two goals by Major and one by Tyler were enough to see them through to the last 8 of the competition.

The Under 13’s had another convincing win with a 7-0 victory away to Manorcroft Utd. A hat-trick by Peare and goals apiece by James, Marques, Lloyd and Haddad sealed a comfortable win.

The Under 14’s were unlucky to lose narrowly 3-2 to Whyteleafe in the last 16.

We wish the two remaining sides luck on the 7th Feb 10 as they look to march on towards the County Cup Finals

Sheen Common and Palewell Closed 16th 17th January

LBRUT have again closed Sheen Common and Palewell for this weekend so there is no training on these facilities on Saturday or home games on Sunday.

The visiting teams have the option to host the match if they can arrange a pitch. If they cannot do this then remember to ring in the postponment to the results line and complete a match report.

All Surrey Youth League Games Cancelled 9th and 10th January

***** Update Friday 8/01/2010 the League have cancelled all games, there is no need to ring in results to the league.

LBRUT have as you would expect closed Palewell and Sheen Common for this weekend due to the weather so all training and games using these facilities are cancelled.

The visiting teams have to be offered the option to host the match. With the current weather conditions they are most unlikely to be able to do this so this is likely to be a formality.

Those due to play County Cup this Sunday should note that their game will take precedence over any fixture next Sunday 17th January. The Secretary will let Surrey County know the position.

Managers must please remember to return your match cards as postponed and ring in your result as postponed to avoid fines.

Fixture Congestion Impact

With so much bad weather this season, and the prospect of more to come, the league are concerned that some teams will have to play mid week fixtures or double headers in order to complete their league program by Sunday 9th May. Only 11 a side teams are of concern.

To avoid this the League have identified those teams that are most at risk and red flagged them. These teams are being asked to offer their fixtures secretary Saturday dates from mid January onwards when they can be available to play league matches.

These Sheen Lions teams have been red flagged:

  • Sheen Lions U12
  • Sheen Lions U14 Pride

The following are ‘green’ and so should have little concern: U11L, U13L, U14L, U18

The following are ‘amber’ so further disruption could result in a problem: U11P , U12P, U13P, U15L

RULES:

(DD) A Team being unable to supply a home venue for whatever reason (frost, snow, waterlogged or
double booked pitch, cancelled by groundsman or referee etc) must inform the Fixture Secretary and MUST offer their opponents
the opportunity to play the game at their opponents ground on that day, if the kick-off time can be arranged within 1 hour of the original time set by the team whose pitch is unavailable. In these circumstances, if the fixture is reversed and neither Team have played each other, it will be classed as the opponent’s home fixture. Where the Teams have already played any additional costs incurred (i.e. pitch fees) must be agreed by both Teams (or in default of agreement determined by the Fixtures Secretary) prior to the fixture being reversed. In circumstances of this nature, the Fixture Secretary must be informed.

(GG) If neither Team have played each other and an application is made to the Fixture Secretary by any Team for a ‘fixture reversal’ of their first fixture, this must be formally approved by the Fixture Secretary before any other arrangements are made. In these circumstances the home Team will be responsible for the costs of the pitch supplied. This applies to both League and Cup matches.

Managers Complete FA Emergency Aid Course

On the evening of Wednesday 11th the FA ran a two hour course on Emergency Aid at the Bank of England attended by all Sheen Lions Managers and Assistants.

Though this course is a component of the FA level 1 coaching certification many of our Sheen Lions coaches also attended: taking the opportunity to refresh their certification.

Obtaining this certification for each manager is one of the final steps we need to take before submitting our Charter application.

Emergency aid covers the recommended procedures to preserve the life of a person until profesional help arrives. Significantly it is now the procedure to assume that a casulty is not circulating if they are not breathing and so to start CPR immediately in this circumstance.

U12s Win Bouremouth Classic

A FANTASTIC performance and another trophy for the Under 12 squad. Over the Bank Holiday they won the Bournemouth Classic trophy in style beating 12 teams from all over the country.

It was also both a great thrill and honour for the boys to receive the Cup from Harry Redknapp and to see BERTIE lift the cup.

The U12 won 2-0 in the final against Ruislip Rangers with both goals from Scott.
