After their first season in the Midsomer Norton League division two Larkhall Ospreys have won the league and gained promotion to the first division next season.  With all games now complete the season finished with 14 wins, 1 draw and only 1 loss. 

This is an excellent achievement for the players and the team due to the fact that the team nearly disbanded at the beginning of the season due to poor results in the last two seasons, generally because of a lack of players.

With only eight players at the beginning of the season, two of whom were new to the team, there are now 20 players registered with the club.  Much of this is due to the help of the eight original players who have helped to bring in new players, and to Rich Stone who has not only given up a lot of his time in trying to attract the players we now have but who also guided the team and me in our infancy.

This has been my first year coaching football and managing the team and it has been a real pleasure.  The players have been really enthusiatic and easy to coach.  Winning obviously helps though!

This is a great achievement for both the team and the club and one which the players should all be very proud of.
