Budleigh Salterton U13's are looking for a keeper, Interested? please call Roy - 07920768851.

The eagle eyed amongst you will notice that we have not put any midweek fixtures into the beginning of the season. The main reason being that we felt it inappropriate to put any pressure on teams  who use council run pitches that are amongst other reasons reserved for senior teams during the week. 

To re-affirm though, we are very happy for fixtures to be moved forward and for teams to play midweek games if they are able to at the early part of the season.

It will be a good way for you to try and avoid postponements due to  the inevitable bad weather we will have.

As promised the fixtures are now published and on the website. Those of you who attended the AGM will be aware that I did say there will probably be some clashes with so many clubs sharing pitches at different age groups. I have looked at as many scenarios as possible but as you can imagine it is an almost impossible task to make sure everybody is happy. That is why I have tried to get the fixtures out in plenty of time to allow you guys (and girls) to liaise with each other and sort out any issues between yourselves to ensure you can get the games played.

For those of you needingto make changes - there area couple of rules of engagement you need to bear in mind .... the new date must be agreed by the opposition, do not simply think you can change it and all will be OK. 

You will also need to send the league Secretary the Postponement form in order that the changes can be made (available on the forms page).

Some may, some may not know but I (along with some very good people) am  trying to raise funds for the new pitch at  Exeter City via an open air concert event on Friday the 9^th July called Rougemont Rocks, the venue being (surprise) Rougemont Gardens.

With the Embezzlers leading off with "Madness" style ska,  followed up by the best Beatles band ever (except the originals off course) The Fab Beatles, and with a  finale to completed by the renowned 10 piece soul sounds of Joey the Lips it is going to be an unforgettable night.

"This new season coming will be the number 15 for the league, and my 13th as Chairman. I would like to take this opportunity to talk about the committee. The enthusiasm, total commitment and professionalism we have is truly infectious. 

The amount of new team's that want to join our league shows how popular we are. The bigger the league the bigger the workload, it is with this mind that I have asked Rob Thorne on to the committee. 

Rob will be the Referee's Officer. I have asked Julie to move over to carry on the good work Nigel Doe started and Julie will become the Charter Coordinator. The addition of Rob I believe will improve what is a very good committee, at the AGM I ask you to ratify this. 

When someone new comes along to be on the committee I need to know if they will fit in with the rest of us, and they are not going to be one season wonders. Having known Rob for 15 year's he fit's the bill perfectly."            

John Penkethman - Chairman of Exeter & District Youth Football League
