Important News - Under 14's

15th October 2008.

It is with huge regret that we have had to withdraw the Under 14 squad from East Antrim Youth League and are in the process of closing down this squad. We can't continue to be fined for not fulfilling league fixtures and from 15 letters sent out last week I only received 8 responses - 6 positive and 2 negative - an 11 a side squad cannot survive on those numbers! Thank you to all those who took time to write/email or phone me - it was appreciated.

In a separate letter I will provide details on:

1) The return of TAYFC kit to the club
2) Contact names and numbers for Antrim Rovers, Ballyclare Comrades & Chimney Corner who all have Under 14 squads for players to contact and trial with in the area.

It is a sad decision for the club and to those boys who wanted to play for Templepatrick. I will keep names on files should anything happen in order to re-group this age group for next season.

Thank you to those players, who over the past seasons have committed to the club, the coaches and the parents for their time also.

Clive Gregory - Chairman TAYFC

Saturday 11th October - Game Cancelled

It is sincere regret that I have to cancel/forfeit yet another Under 14 game for this Saturday 11th October 2008.

As at this morning (08:30) from 15 letters sent to registered players I have received just 7 responses - 6 positive & 1 negative - this hardly bodes well for an 11 man squad to play competitively in the East Antrim Youth League - we will be fined again for not fielding a team!

Sorry it has come to this - but without the responses I don't know how we can move forward

Saturdays Game

Tomorrows match v Ballysillan at Ewarts pitches has unfortunately had to be cancelled and points forfeited. This is due to lack of player availability & commitment (only 5 players turned up at training last night!).

Please contact Clive for further details.
