d: “It’s been a long road from when we first started the trial process just after Christmas, and although it’s been a tough journey, it’s been an extremely worthwhile and productive one as I believe we have assembled a squad which is capable of going all the way in this year’s tournament.
“In recent years the county squads have been getting closer and closer to that Milk Cup win so I’m totally confident that this squad have the credentials to do the County, themselves and their parents proud.”
He went on to sympathise with those players who were not successful in the trials. “I have no doubt that these players will be bitterly disappointed. During the trial process they have all showed tremendous commitment and support to myself, so I would like to thank them and wish them all the best in their future football careers”.
