The current under 9 squad began life as a new under 6 squad back in October 2005 with Danny as their Coach and his brother Steve as his assistant. Although numbers were small at first, by November 2005 the squad had risen to 15 players and now in 2008, has two teams and a squad of 17. Steve has left in his role as assistant coach and has been replaced by Pete. Mick has also joined, the team, and helps with training and matches.

Although we have lost one of our long standing team members in Connor Smith (to PNE Academy), we have gained three new team members in Jack Robinson (as goalkeeper), Connor Phelps (Midfield/Defence) and Kyle Haworth (Midfield).
