Mossend FC 2001

Think this must be the first time we have managed to get a full team photo of all the 20 boys together

Forget about waving your flag this summer or blowing your vuvuzela, you want to be wearing your scarf like Roberto Mancini the Manchester City Manager.

Roberto said “La sciarpa è cool”

So Mossend FC have taken some styling tips from the Italian and are happy to announce we have for a limited time only…

The Mossend FC Scarf

Please see the Mossend FC Media Marketing Executive (that’s Billy to you and me) for price and availability.

This isn’t the big break we want for all our Mossend FC 2001 players. Connor managed to fall jumping from a playground swing and break his arm in a few places, see it’s not always those dangerous trampolines.

Get well soon Connor from all the coaches and players at Mossend FC.

Remember to take care everyone during the summer holidays.

North Lanarkshire Council / SFA Football Development are starting a NEW Player Development Academy in August on a Monday or Wednesday night and open to anyone who would like to attend, I’d get in quick as the places will go fast.

Two of our Mossend FC 2001 Players have been lucky enough to be attending the pilot programme for this Player Development Academy for a few months now and the feedback received so far has been very good and the skills the boys have been learning has improved the boys game play.

If you would like to attend this NEW Player Development Academy please download the form and contact Steven Hamilton or Michelle Broadley directly (details on the form). Remember to get in there quickly to secure your place!

I have to say yesterday’s Caledonian Tournament at Prestwick was wonderful.

The weather was great, the supporters were fantastic and the Mossend players were brilliant.

Well done everyone for making the last games and event of the season 2009/2010 a wonderful success.

What I think was more amazing was no one was sick on the bus home, especially after those cheese burgers after the tournament ended

Already looking forward to the start of next season

Goodbye for now and enjoy the summer holidays boys.

Just to make everyone aware that we have now resolved the administration error we had last month. The Club and Player Insurance Cover with the SYFA is back in place for the Caledonian Football Tournament,  and for all training and games we have after the 1st July 2010 (Season 2010/2011).

The club would like to apologise for this error and will try hard to ensure that this will not happen again.

The Bus will be leaving from Cardinal Newman High School at 1100am on Saturday 19th June 2010 for travel to Academy Park, Prestwick. Cars can be left in the School car park.

Tournament registration finishes at 1230pm and we require all players not traveling on the Bus to be at Academy Park prior to this registration time. Please note if you are taking your Car that there are restrict parking restrictions in place around the Academy Park which may result in you getting clamped if you do not abide by them, see the Caledonian Tournament Newsletter below for more information.

Tournament officially kicks-off at 1pm and will finish around 4pm.

As the boys will be representing Mossend Football Club, we would like them to come fully kitted out with their Saturday home strip on and their full tracksuit on. It might also be good for them to bring their bags with Mossend FC rainjacket in it, also additional items might include a towel and suntan lotion? Who knows what the weather is going to be like?
 
Caledonia Football Tournament will be played on 3G Astroturf and Grass pitches, so I’d bring both types of football boots as we are unsure what pitches we will actually be playing on.

Mossend FC 2001 will NOT be supplying food, refreshments or supervison during non-game playing time for players during this tournament, so it is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to ensure the player has adequate water/sports drinks, eats responsibly and behaves responsibly as they are there representing Mossend Football Club.

Finally enjoy the tournament everyone and remember to bring your scarfs, flags, horns, rattles, hooters, Vuvuzela’s, etc… to show your support for MOSSSEND!

Calderbraes from the Coatbridge League visited Sir Matt Busby’s on Saturday for a friendly game and everyone was treated to some great games of football from both teams. The Mossend FC Yellows and Blacks played the way they have been playing all season and put in a superb performance winning all their games. Its looking good for the Caledonian Football Tournament next Saturday boys!

Thank you very much to Calderbraes for visiting us and we look forward to a replay at Calderbraes home ground soon?

We will be holding Training this Friday 11th June at the usual time of 6pm at John Paul School, Viewpark and we have arranged a Friendly match with Calderbraes on the Saturday 12th June for 1030am at Sir Matt Busby’s, Bellshill.

Can we ask ALL parents to stay behind at the end of the Calderbraes game as we want to size all the boys for next seasons football kit.
