Hesketh Bank u8`s are a newly formed team of ten boys and a girl of which six have not played in a team before. We play in a 7 a side friendly league on Penwortham Holme near Preston each Saturday morning. We train indoors at Tarleton High School Sports Hall on Friday nights between 6-7pm. Our wet tops and kits were generously sponsored by Huntapac, to who we are very grateful. If you would like to come and join us ring me - Neil Wareing on 07738 093 439. As we are not allowed by the FA to publish match results reports will be done on a monthly basis, consisting of goal scorers, match statistics and goal of the month etc.
