MANAGERS REPORT FC Oswestry Town Manager, Matt Burton Firstly I would like to welcome all players, management, committee and supporters of Sandbach United here today for this afternoon’s fixture. We wish you a safe journey to and from the game.

Company Name: FC OSWESTRY LIMITED Company No: 08495772 Chairman: Ian Jones Director of Football: Nick Maguire Commercial Director: Matt Williams Club Secretary: Andy Burnett Programme Editor: Kevin Janes County Affiliation: Shropshire Year Formed: 2013 Previous Leagues: Mercian Premier

We have had a very positive pre-season build up over the last month, which leads me to be very optimistic about the season ahead. Our pre-season has consisted of five friendlies agianst strong Welsh opposition. With the passing of each game we have become stronger, with our many new players starting to bed in and gel nicely.

Our pre-seson run has seen us gain four victories with just one defeat. Our sole defeat was against League of Wales side, Newtown. However, even in this game there were many positives as we held our opposition to 0-0 well into the second half.

Our new season awaits in the Hallmark Security League. Division One has been re-organised into North and South divisions. So we can now look forward to a number of new local derbies, as we welcome Ellesmere Rangers and St.Martins, amongst others to the HSL. We start today with a tough opening fixture against Sandbach United. Sandbach narrowly missed out in the promotion play-offs last season. So I’m sure, like us they will be looking to make a good start to the new season. It promises to be a challenging afternoon. But I’m sure with your support and a good performance we can make it a winning start to the new season.

Enjoy the game and I look forward to seeing you again soon down at The Venue.

OUR VISITORS Year Formed: 2004 Ground: Sandbach Community Centre Manager: Andy Hockenhull Sandbach United Football Club was established in 2004 when Sandbach Albion and Sandbach Ramblers joined forces in their quest to improve the football facilities in Sandbach. Hence the R & A on the club badge.

In January 2004, the membership of Sandbach Albion and Sandbach Ramblers voted in favour of amalgamation, with the aim of playing as a single club from the start of the 2004/5 season.

Sandbach Albion was formerly known as Hays Junior Football Club and was founded in 1994, playing on the pitches of what was then Albion Chemicals. As health and safety issues became more prevalent in the 90’s, they left that site and for 5 years the senior home ground was at Sandbach Cricket Club.

The younger sides played their games at junior schools throughout Sandbach. Sandbach Ramblers Youth Football Club was formed in 1995 to provide access to schoolboy football for the youth of Sandbach. Of course there had been a Ramblers team in the town before, Sandbach Ramblers were initially formed over 100 years ago, playing in the Cheshire County League and winning the Cheshire FA Senior Cup in 1914, before folding in 1975 reforming in 1979 and disbanding in the late 1980s.

In 2006 Sandbach United formed the adult team, which initially competed in the Crewe and District League before moving to the Staffordshire Senior League First Division and then being promoted to the Premier Division for the 2008/9 season.

www.fcoswestrytown.uk sandbach-utd-040818.indd 4

01/08/2018 23:41:31

In 2011, the club was awarded grants by the Football Foundation and the local council of over ÂŁ2 million to build a 3G pitch and 9 grass pitches, together with changing rooms and an education suite. The Sandbach Community Football Centre was opened early in the 2011/12 season.

United switched to the Cheshire League in 2011 and won promotion to the Premier Division for the 2013/14 season before moving to The Hallmark Security League for the 2016/17 season.

The clubs first season in the Hallmark Security League was better than we dreamed, winning the Macron Club of the Month in December, finishing 6th in Division 1 and being Reusch First Division Challenge Cup Runners up. Our goal keeper also collected two Reusch Keeper of the Month awards.

In another first for the club, the 2017/18 season sees the club enter The FA Vase with a home 2nd Qualifying Round fixture against AFC Emley.

The club has over 600 players and 40+ teams that operate from its Hind Heath Road base, which is just 3 miles from junction 17 of the M6.

United have teams playing in the Mid-Cheshire Youth League, and the Cheshire Girls League among others, and the age range covers adults and veterans teams right down to Soccer School for Reception and Year 1 children.
