After a really positive summer and an unbeaten pre-season campaign, optimism was pared slightly by a last minute defeat on the opening day of the season. But subsequent league wins, as well as victories in the Kent County Cup and League Cup (versus Bromley, Lordswood and Hastings Utd, respectively) have the boys back on track and hunting for honours.

A quick thank you to our recent sponsors again -
M’Arks Sky Bar in Eltham High Street https://marksskybar.com;
GC Roofing (georgechapmanroofing@gmail.com) and;
Hever Group Garden Studios https://hevergroup.co.uk.

Also, a big thank you at this time to Gareth Pritchard who runs the sports performance and coaching business, Strength in Sport. He worked with the squad throughout the summer on technique, stamina and conditioning, and advising on injury care and nutrition. The boys and parents loved the sessions and we would whole heartedly recommend Gareth for any budding footballers, athletes, cyclists etc.

The support from these guys has been so important to the boys, and we remain proud ambassadors of these brands.

This season, the team’s new kit will kindly be provided by the Woodcroft Club.
Located in Eltham High Street, the Woodcroft has sponsored our junior teams in the past and is back supporting the Under 16s this year.

The Woodcroft is Eltham High Street’s private members club that offers a friendly atmosphere and excellent facilities, including multiple bars, function rooms, live sports on TV, full size snooker tables, darts, lawn bowls, live music and lots of social opportunities.

Massive thanks to Richard and Kevin from the Woodcroft for kindly arranging to sponsor the team; the boys are looking forward to coming to show their gratitude in person.

For Woodcroft Club membership enquiries, please contact enquiries@woodcroft.club or for more details visit https://www.woodcroft.club

The boys are also excited to see more of the 1st team this season after last year’s promotion, and hopefully seeing some Millers supporters at our games on a Sunday too!!
