Posted 9.00am Sun 24th
Despite the overnight rain I haven't heard that the tournament is off so we'll assume it's going ahead. Those who need a lift please meet 1pm at Elms Parade. The tournament is at Stratford Brakes ground but you have to park at Water Eaton Park and Ride where there are busses to and from the ground. Registration is at 1.30pm.
If I hear anything this morning I'll let you know straight away
Radley tournament and Kidlington
Well done to the lads that played and won the Radley tournament today. It was a great victory and thoroughly deserved.
The selection for the 5/6 a side tournaments have been based on those who responded quickest - and the ones who pestered the most! Apologies to those that didn't get to play, they were all well over subscribed.
The next tournament is a big one and it's this Sunday, 24th June at Kidlington. It's 11 a side and we are allowed 14 players. It is first come first served and an indication of the squad we are likely to play next season, so please let me know your availability as soon as possible. Please contact me via the management or text my mobile on 07785 746756

Congratulations to all three and they were richly deserved. Well done to Connor for his speech when accepting his award.
It's a mark of how successful the team has been as a whole this season in that there was quite a wide spread of votes this year.
Presentation Day 12th May 2012
It's the Presentation Day on Saturday 12th May 11am at The Closes in Cumnor. All players and their families for the season are expected to attend this event. Players will get a medal for being part of the squad plus a rather neat medal for being runners up this year.
It's been an amazing achievement this season especially considering how we've struggled in previous years, so all should be well pleased with their effort.
Turn up, get your medals, all is good.

Training on Tuesday 24th April at The Closes
Posted 17th April
After our short break we resume training at The Closes in Cumnor, 7pm Tuesday April 24th, ahead of our friendly against the Under 15s on Sunday.
We'll go over the various events ahead including tournaments and Presentation Day.
Cumnor Minors Presentation Day
Posted 17th April
The Cumnor Presentation Day is at 11am until around 2-3pm on the 12th May and it essential everyone turns up for that. We're giving out the usual trophies plus league runners up medals so all players will get plenty to take back with them.
Don't forget all spectators get the opportunity to vote for their player of the season, so if you haven't voted already please do so. You only need to have been to a handful of games to qualify for a vote and it is open to family and friends. Please send your vote via email to the management or text/call my mobile on 07785 746756.
Each team has to help out with something at the Presentation Day and I've agreed we are to run the Penalty Shoot Out - it was that or clearing up at the end! It's not actually penalties but a board Paul Lyon is providing with holes to kick a ball through in order to score 1, 2 or 3 points. It just needs someone to collect the money and add up the scores. I'm sure we can all take it in turns until everyone gets bored of it all.
