HAWKS UNDER 15 NEWS



The Season gets underway this Sunday for the Under 15s with an away league fixture against West of Scotland KO 2:00pm.

Pre season training has gone well and we have a squad of 26 boys vying for places in the starting line up. Thanks go to Gregor McDougall again for all his efforts in getting the boys up to speed. We have been very fortunate indeed to secure the help of Logan Kerisone who has really pulled the boys along with innovative and educational sessions and I feel that the forwards in particular will have benefited from his input. Ally MacLay has also been along to help out however his involvement has been hampered by injury- we all wish him a speedy return to fitness.

Due to the pressure on the grounds at OA we felt it appropriate to look elsewhere for a venue for training and our home games. We have been welcomed over the fence at New Anniesland and will be based there for the rest of the season.

The boys all realise that in reality this is their last chance to achieve their full potential in Hawks jerseys. They played magnificently last year and were undefeated in games lasting the full period (the sole defeat was to GHA in an 8 minute each way game). The aim this year is to maintain concentration levels at all times and to be undefeated in all games and bring some silverware home.

Saturdays squad is as follows:



1 Stephen Dickson

2 Cameron Crozier

3 Kenny McGowan

4 Elliot Connell

5 Chris Rhodes

6 Jamie Swanson (Captain)

7 Rory Stewart

8 Sean McAlindon

9 Jack McDougall

10 Patrick Bell

11 Max Martin

12 Rory Taylor

13 Finn Campbell-Young

14 Robbie Nicholson

15 Jonny Byrne-Leitch

16 Robbie Hirst

17 Scott Fraser

18 Andy Homer

19 Graham Robertson

20 David Eadie

21 Iain Parry

22 Quentin Liao



Jamie Yacoubian, Tom Cahn, Ross MacFarlane and Rory Henderson were all unavailable for selection because of injury.
