Sunday 15th March was a re-arranged fixture away to Manchester. We fielded 2 evenly balanced  teams (just possible from a squad of 19) as did Manchester so the format was for both Ormskirk teams to play both Manchester teams in turn on adjacent pitches with the matches running simultaneously. Manchester are a very strong club […]

Our first outing for 2009 was a local derby away to Southport. This couldn’t have really gone any better with a convincing 7 - 3 win made possible by robust defence and superb backing up in attack to capitalise on our breaks. Kai Smith deservedly won the “top tackler” award this week but all 12 players […]

An experimental team with several players in unfamiliar positions and three players making their Ormskirk debuts warmed up with a game against Winnington Park B. They then played Winnington Park A running out convincing 5-1 winners although the game was very tight […]
