An meeting was held by the Pin point football leagues on December 14th at the RBL Blakelaw and our secretary Gwyneth Scott attended to represent the club. The main point of the meeting was to discuss the possibility of next year’s under 11 league moving to the 9 a side format. This was not formally passed but in a straw poll taken on the night it would gain a positive vote at a meeting yet to be arranged in January 2012. Representatives from the FA were at the meeting to give guidance as this will become mandatory the season following. Matches can take place on a junior pitch with some possible slight adjustments. The FA has plans to talk to other leagues but as yet no definite information from the NEYDL

Hexham u14’s are presently playing in Division One of the Pinpoint Recruitment junior football leagues and are doing very well in fifth place. To maintain this they need to recruit some more players so if you are or know anyone who was under 14 on Sept 1st 2011 and would like to come to training to see if they like it please contact
