HEACHAM F C
ANNOUNCEMENTS
Heacham are pleased to announce the appointment of Paul Hunt, from 1st May, as 1st team Manager. Paul has a wealth of experience at this level, not only having played in this league but also has twice been the manager of Swaffham Town in The Thurlow Nunn Premier Division.
The Club will be running 3 teams next season:-
a. 1st Team in Thurlow Nunn Premier Division
b. Reserve Team in Fosters Solicitors Anglian Combination Division 5
c. Thurlow Nunn U18 League. (this will hopefully see a number of our current U16
Players move up to this level).
THE TEAMS
1ST TEAM
The team completed their fixtures with two very hard away games, which resulted in a 4 nil loss at Walsham Le Willows and a 6 nil defeat at Thetford Town. Although it wasn’t the end of the season that everyone connected to the club wanted, the main aim was to stay in the Thurlow Nunn Premier Division, and that was achieved. A lot has been learned in our debut season at this level (step 5) and I am sure that next season will see the team climb up the division, with possibly some cup runs to add to the excitement of the 2024/5 season.
Further Information on all this season’s fixtures/results and the final league table can all be found on The Thurlow Nunn League website.
END OF SEASON AWARDS NIGHT
This was held on Saturday 18th May, in the Public Hall. A full list of winners will appear in next month’s Newsletter.
Heacham F.C. U16’s
They compete in The Norfolk Combined Youth Football League (Under 16 Premier League).
There are two games to report on, firstly a narrow 3-2 defeat away to Champions Blofield United Youth F.C. U16 and a very good away win at Old Catton Juniors F.C. U16 by 4 goals to 1. There is still one more league to play (home 26th May v Mulbarton Wanderers F.C. U16 Falcons k.o. 10am) but the team can be very proud of their league position (4th) and also what an achievement to reach the final of the County Cup in their first season.
Further Information on all this season’s fixtures/results and the final league table can all be found on The Norfolk Combined Youth Football League website.
