2011 Season Squad

The call went out & the Salmon responded-
Out this year is the youth triumvirate of Chris, Cam and Jonathon. Plus Ben the Bobby retires to better pace the beat. Danny is also off, potentially to join Marist FC, although he'll turn out of us in the preseason. Returning from Quake damaged Chch is Terry "The British Bulldog" Henry. We also have a couple of newbies (ahem) trialling for the Salmon in 2011.

Our first friendly is today against the Arms at Vicotria University's new artificial field- here is the team we have assembled:

Terry Henry
Craig Ireson
Sami Yusif
Dave Armstrong
Richard Hallam
Jeremy Norman
Nigel Kum
Adam Holloway
Nathan Rattray
Danny Culling
Wayne
Steve Weston

WU Arms finished 3rd in Div 5 last season. They are one of the most succesful WU social sides. Despite this the Salmon have always given them a run for their money, in fact last season we drew our preseason game with them 2-2. The only time we were in the same division together it finished honiurs even with 1 win apiece.

WU Elite finished 5th in Div 7. Salmon have never played them before.

The Sunday Blazers play in the stand alone Wgtn Sunday League. They are a very good team, with a quick fluid style. We have played four preseason friendlies against them- Won 1, drew 1, lost 2.

The net is cast, the conch shell has been blown

Who is returning to the spawning grounds for the 2010 season, and who is swimming on, further out to sea?

Stay tuned for updates.
