We're back from tour!
OK, lots to catch up on. There's no training on Thursday night or Easter Sunday. Back on Thursday 12th for 7's training ahead of New Milton's tournament on 15th April. For those not in the 7's squad there's a game to be had for the Alton Colts.
Squad selection for New Milton is as follows - please let Gary or Dave B know asap if you can't make it:-
James Airey, Ralph Andrews, Ed Benn, Krishna Gurung, Joe Gwyther, Will Hamer, Charlie Hibbert, Oscar Jermyn, Dan Mortara, Ed Simmons, Josh Smith, Adam Stoller
All players NOT in the above 7's squad are invited to play for Alton Colts v Aldermaston Colts, also on Sunday 15th April, at Aldermaston. It's a 11:30am KO with meet at Anstey Park at 09:45am to organise lift sharing etc. Please let Gary or Dave B know if you wish to play and we'll pass your details onto the Colts coaching team. This is a great opportunity for more of the squad to make the easy step up, particularly after playing so well against U17 players in Italy. Back in February Alton Colts beat Aldermaston 61-10.
Following the NM 7's is our final League game which is a must win! A win would take us to 4th in the League. Then we have our final 15-a-side fixture at home to Wimborne which should be a friendly/Development match with priority to those who don't start against Jersey.
Season ends, as per normal, with the Alton Junior 7's. Then the final excitement of Presentations Day and hopefully, an end of season party!!
