FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Another well fought season draws towards a close.... and after all the cold mornings and muddy kits the summer comes a bit nearer...hopefully!  To round off the season we have two events coming up that the club would like you to support as much as possible.

 At 7pm on Sunday 11th May is the club AGM. (Rayleigh Police station clubroom) This is a time where it would be great for some new members to make themselves known and put themselves forward to bring some new ideas to the club as we strive to remain at the top of our game. We would particularly like help from the mini soccer area. So please, if you have a small bit of free time each week and could dedicate it to moving Hambro forward please shout up.

 From 2pm on Sunday 18th May are the club awards (Freight House, Rochford) We look forward to seeing you all there, supporting one another and making it great occasion for the kids.

 Its been a pleasure to Chair the business of this club for the last 12 months and I hope it will carry on developing as it has over the next 12.  Please feel free to drop me a line with any issues you have or ideas to make things better. I hope to see as many of you as possible in the next few weeks

 Regards  Toby Larkin Chairman

F.A Skills coaching comes to Hambro

Essex is benefiting from the commencement of an exciting new F.A. Tesco Skills Coach Programme aimed at raising the technical standards of football amongst 5-11 year olds.  Hambro Colts are lucky enough to have 5 weeks of coaching sessions at the Rayleigh Leisure Centre. All the sessions are free and will start on Monday 18 of Feb at 5:30pm sharp till 7:00pm. The kids will need to bring trainers and shin pads as the sessions will take place on the outside courts. The courts are booked from 5pm so please use the extra time to warm up the kids if possible. Some teams were previously invited to take part at Rawreth Lane a few weeks ago so the other teams will be invited to attend first. I will be contacting you shortly to arrange your slot. Hope you enjoy the sessions - Paul Sitch

KEEPER TRAINING CANCELLED

"For those wanting goalkeeper coaching I must apologise. Due to unforeseen circumstances, my commitment weekly to the Under 12A  has increased making it impossible for me to be available to cover goalkeeping. I will be seeking some help from Mike, the other coach in the short term. Please watch the site for dates in due course" Toby

The High Sheriff's Awards

This is an annual award scheme to support and reward local people and organisations. For the voluntary and community sector this is effectively the "Essex Oscars". Since the High Sheriffs� Fund was established with Essex Community Foundation in 1997 it has distributed over £134,000 to 172 charities. Part of the Volunteer Centres Awards� is to recognise exceptional work with volunteers. I am very proud to say one of our volunteers has nominated a person the volunteer centre works closely with - Mr. Bob Pointer. Bob is a football coach with Hambro Colts, committee member with Rochford Sports Council and is a facilitator with the community sports Leaders Courses. Of the 86 Essex wide nominations I a proud to say Bob is through to the final 6!. The presentation is done in true glitzy style at Fennes Estate in March surrounded by local dignitaries and officers, when the winner will be kept secret until the night!.Good luck Bob!

The Essex FA
 

I am a Colt in yellow and black,

I always look forward never look back,

No matter what the game has in store,

I will enjoy it whatever the score,

Some only feel happy when they have won,

But I am a Colt and I play for fun.
