At the West Cheshire League's Annual General Meeting this evening the Runcorn Linnets Reserve team and Runcorn Linnets Youth team were both formally accepted into the league. The Reserves will play in Division Three and the Youths in the West Cheshire Youth league, and both teams will be based at The Millbank Linnets Stadium, with the Reserves playing all their home games at the new ground, and the Youth team hopefully using a public pitch at Halton Sports. Of course, The Millbank Linnets Stadium will be made available to the Youth Team for prestige fixtures.

Throughout the summer, many options were considered, and meetings were held with Halton FC, with the hope of a merger between First Division Halton and the Linnets Reserve set up. Unfortunately there proved to be too many obstacles to this fast track option to get the Reserves into West Cheshire Division One. The club would like to thank Paul Jameson and the Halton officials for their efforts and time in trying to make this happen. The major stumbling block for this option was the requirement of the Reserves and Youth Team to become a seperate club from Runcorn Linnets FC, however the Trust Board and in particular the steering Football Development Group decided that keeping the Reserve and Youth set-ups within the Runcorn Linnets Club structure would prove to be the best long term strategy. This allows allows both teams to play under the Runcorn Linnets name, and both teams will proudly wear the same Millbank branded kit as the Linnets First Team.

The club really hopes that the Linnets supporters will now get behind Jay Maddock and the Reserves, and Tony Nolan and the Youth Team, in what will be a quite difficult but nonetheless exciting period in the development of Runcorn Linnets. The integration of these two teams, added to the inclusion of Inter Union Junior FC in the overall Linnets' set up, heralds the arrival of a structure at the club where local youngsters can progress through the ranks and hopefully represent the First Team and beyond. In the coming months the club will explore new avenues to further develop and integrate the club into the local community.

Well done to the new Youth Team who washed cars at Asda today, and managed to raise over £240 in the process. Well done lads!
