Oxton Lacrosse Newsletter - 21/09/2011

Last weekend saw the start of a busy lacrosse season for Oxton Lacrosse club. With the cricket season finishing on Saturday afternoon and the lacrosse starting on Sunday morning there was a quick change over from cricket pitches to lacrosse pitches.

Not only was it the first weekend of junior fixtures at Oxton, but we also hosted the Cheshire trials for the U18 and U15 squads. We had over 80 lacrosse player's visit our club over the weekend. Thanks were extended to the club from the Cheshire coaches and manager (Julie Barker) for our hospitality. We are delighted to announce that several Oxton girls were chosen for the squads.

The U14 team started the 2011 season at home on Sunday with matches against Mellor and Stockport and tucked two great wins under their belt.

The U12 team will be playing at home on Sunday 9^th October against Heaton Mersey and Mellor and the U16's first home match will be on 23^rd October against Stockport. (Match details and venues are posted on our notice board in the clubhouse).

The 2011-2012 Season is looking very exciting for Oxton lacrosse club with many plans for all age groups (U12/14/16/18 and Ladies) over the coming months.

Congratulations must go again to our Ladies 1^st team for their wonderful win in Switzerland and them becoming the European Women's Champions 2011.
