Forres Area Soccer 7s

Football for boys and girls regardless of their ability.

Team Sponsor Renewal

By

Forres Area soccer7s are delighted to announce that Moray Firth Credit Union have renewed their Team Sponsorship.

Due to a name change from Forres Area Credit Union, the local Credit Union decided to take out a new sponsorship deal, a year early.

The Chair of the Moray Firth Credit Union, Lorna Creswell said ” Moray Firth Credit Union (formerly Forres Area Credit Union) has sponsored a Forres Soccer 7’s football team for many years as we felt it was good promotion and at that time we had savings clubs in Primary schools. We all want healthy bairns that keep as active as possible in sports and for them to learn about Money and saving for their ‘goals’ a new bike or computer or a ski trip. Credit Unions are Savings & Loans Co-operatives and owned and run by members. Regular good savings habits we encourage and being part of a team…… parents may want to borrow if they take out memberships too!

Soccer7s Chairperson, Paul Lynch added “It is fantastic to have such great support from local companies, such as Moray Firth Credit Union who have renewed their sponsorship contract with us. Due to them rebranding they took the opportunity to bring forward their sponsorship a year which allowed us to have new strips with their new logo.”   “We will be looking to renew our sponsorship agreements with the rest of our sponsors at the end of this season, with all new strips ready for the 2023 season.

Pictured is the Moray Firth Credit Union Super5s Team with their new tops. Next year, we plan for the kids to wear their new full strips.

A huge year coming up for Soccer7s, where we will be celebrating our 30th year and all the rest of our sponsorships will be up for renewal.

Soccer7s Tour of Vienenburg 2022

By

Forres Area Soccer7s 2022 visit to Vienenburg

WOW!!!!!! What an amazing week we have had.

20 of our players, ranging from the ages of 7 to 16 and 12 adults made the trip to our Twinned Town of Vienenburg in Germany.

7 x Super5s (7 to 9-year-old)

8 x Junior7s (10 to 12-year-old)

5 x Senior7s (14 to 16-year-old)

The 12 adults were made up with coaches and parents.

A massive thank you to The Berry Burn Community Fund for giving Soccer7s a £4000 grant, James Jones & Sons Ltd for supplying the players with tracksuits, Thomson Tyres for supplying our Junior7s team and Lossiemouth Garage for supplying our Super5s team.

Plus, a huge thank you to everyone else who supported our trip.    

The Journey

We left Grant Park at 0145 on a Kineil Coach, quick pick-up in Elgin and the 32 of us are on the coach, ready for the 11-hour journey to Vienenburg. 

The journey went according to plan, which was surprising due to the cancellations and delays that had been happening all over Europe.  Funny thing was, we arrived at Amsterdam Airport, got off our aeroplane and took the 30 min journey to the Airport Terminal, back through Passport Control and then back onto the same aeroplane we went off.  Obviously, there must be a reason, we just found it very funny.

Met by our hosts, Martin (Mayor of Vienenburg) and Sven with 4 minibuses, we started the last leg of our journey from Hannover to Vienenburg.   

Monday

Lunch/Walk around Vienenburg

We were greeted by our old friend Anni at the Youth Centre.  Anni and Sven were part of the team that hosted us on our previous visit in 2017. 

After some lunch at the Youth Centre and the bed spaces dished out, Anni took us on a guided tour of Vienenburg.  Must have been about 28 degrees, amazing weather. 

Luckily Martin had arranged for all of us to get ice cream at the ice cream shop to cool us down. 

Come Together/Ice Breaker Games

For dinner on the first night, we had a BBQ at the youth Centre, where the Soccer7s players met the players from JSG Harly for the first time. We played some ice breaking games that were organised by Martin Sanger, one of the JSG Harley coaches.

Tuesday

Meet Lord Mayor of Goslar/Tour of Goslar

With everyone feeling refreshed, it was time for Day 2.  Minibuses into Goslar, it was time to meet the Lord Mayor Urte Schwerdtner.  She spoke with our group for about half hour before a lady called Dagmar took us on a guided tour of Goslar.

Open Air Swimming Pool

After some lovely German/Turkish Kebabs, it was time to get our swimming gear on and head to Vienenburg’s Outdoor Swimming Pool.  The kids and adults loved this, although people were complaining that the ground was too hot for their feet.  Haha

Dinner at Sports Pavilion with Kickabout

Another of our old friends Tina, provided our dinner for the evening at the Sports Pavilion.  As JSG Harly’s football season was now finished, we were unable to use the pitch until Friday Night, so the kids got to train and play football around the outside of the pitch. 

6 of the Adults got the chance to go to the Night Time Funfair.  Don’t worry, it wasn’t as it sounds.  Basically, the funfair is only open to adults that night.  Kids get to go on Wednesday.

Wednesday

Lake/Sports Games

Another scorching day in Deutschland, after breakfast we went a half hour walk to the lake and played some games and relaxed before heading back to the Youth Centre for some Bratties on the BBQ. 

Kids went to Funfair

In the afternoon, everyone got the chance to go to the Funfair.  We were met at the entrance by Sven Schneider and Martin Muller from Schutzen and Volkfest Goslar who gifted our young people tickets to get on the rides as well as ice cream and candy floss. 

Dinner at Sports Pavilion with Kickabout

Evening activities included dinner at the Sports Pavilion followed by more exciting football. 

Thursday

Swimming at Goslar due to rain

Sadly, woke up to rain this day.  We were meant to go a hike and then go to the summer toboggan run and cable cars.  Unfortunately, it was too wet for this, luckily Martin managed to make a phone call and get us booked into the Indoor Swimming Pool in Goslar. A big thank you to the manager of the pool, Sascha Feier.  We spent a good 3 or 4 hours in here, with the diving board getting used extremely well. They even fed us very tasty chicken nuggets and chips.

Pizza Party

Thursday Night was Pizza Party Night.  It was due to get held at the Vienenburg Lake, unfortunately due to the rain, it had to be moved to the Sports Pavilion.  4 or 5 different types of Pizza, they just kept coming!!  Not sure there were many pizzas left in Vienenburg.  Haha  

Friday

Rammelsberg Mine

Back to lovely weather on Friday.  We were at the Rammelsberg Mine for 0930hrs where we got a tour of the mine by Dr Jurgen.  He was a very good tour guide who had been on holiday in Scotland a few times.  Luckily, we don’t go down mines in this day and age.   

Hahnenklee Cable Cars and Toboggan Run

We went straight from the mine to the Cable Cars and Toboggan Run that we could not do the previous day.   Everyone loved this, think the kids would have spent the whole day on the Taboggan Run if they could. 

For lunch, we got to eat in the restaurant at Hanenklee, where some of us chose to eat an unbelievable burger.   Mmmmmmm delicious. 

FOOTBALL

After an extremely busy day, it was time to play all our Football Matches.  

5pm was the Super5s kick off, the team was

Super5s – 7- to 9-year-olds sponsored by Lossiemouth Garage

Rory Lynch

Samuel Herbert

Josh Proctor

Verity Judd

Lucas Bain

Forbes McFadden

Olly Hizzett

Ezra Bain was the coach

A very entertaining game, 15 mins each way.  Our players are not used to playing on a bigger pitch, with bigger goals.  The game finished 3 – 3, with goals from Samuel, Lucas and Olly.

The video of the game is available on the Soccer7s Facebook Page.

Next up was our Junior7s team sponsored by Thomson Tyres

Junior7s 10 – 12-year-olds

Callum Kippax

Casey Thomson

Neala McFadden

Olly Milton

Jack Moore

Ayden Trevenna-Roy

Jonathan Herbert

Elliot Watt

Coach was John Ritchie

The video of the game is available on the Soccer7s Facebook Page.

Another entertaining game which was played 20 mins each way.  The score line of 5 nil does not reflect the performance that the Junior7s put in.  They were playing against a very good team of 11 to 13-year-olds.  First half ended 2 nil, it was very close and could have gone either way. Think the fact that JSG Harley had a few more subs that the Junior7s helped them as well. 

Then we had the Senior7s 14 – 16-year-olds played with the Berry Burn Community Fund logo on their shirts

Lewis Smith

Finlay Wallace

Ethan Lynch

Corin Milne

Josh MacDonald

Scottish Finn

Coach was Mike Judd

A very exciting game between the 2 teams of teenagers, Our Seniors borrowed one of the German players ‘Scottish Finn’ to make 6 a side.  20 mins each way. 

The game finished 4 – 4 with goals from Ethan x 2, Scottish Finn and Josh. 

The video of the game is available on the Soccer7s Facebook Page.

To finish the football off, we had our adult’s match

Mike Judd

Tommy Smith

Scott Thomson

Paul Lynch

Gary Watt

Nichola Kippax

Fiona Ettles

Ezra Bain

Jamie McFadden

John Ritchie

Coached by all Soccer7s kids.

Another entertaining match consisting of some walking football and rekindling old memories.  Haha.    The game ended 1 – 1 after Gary Watt put the away team in front.  It stayed that way until the last minute when the home side got a very dodgy freekick that resulted in the equaliser. 

Penalty kicks followed, with Forres winning 4 – 2 so we got revenge for both the penalty defeat in Forres in 2019 as well as the Europa League Final this year. 

Presentation

After the football, we had our presentations, BBQ, and a few refreshments.  A very good night was had by all. 

Saturday

Shopping in Goslar

On Saturday, we were let loose to go shopping in Goslar for gifts for our loved ones back home.  There was also football tournament for the kids in the City Centre but sadly it was on all weekend so Soccer7s could not participate in it.  If our original KLM Flight had not been cancelled for Sunday Evening, the kids could have played in it. 

Open Air Swimming Pool

Final chance for everyone to go swimming at the Vienenburg Outdoor Pool, the kids did not need much persuasion to return to the pool.  There were some tired legs from the day before and luckily there was a very very nice Spa Bath which helped fix our muscles. 

Farewell Party

Time for the Farewell Party at the Youth Hostel. A massive thank you to all our Vienenburg Friends who turned up for the Farewell BBQ.  Far too many to mention everyone’s names

Sunday Return Journey

Time for the Journey home.  We left Vienenburg at 0700 on the Sunday morning for our 1050 flight from Hannover to Amsterdam.  10 hours wait at Amsterdam Airport before our last flight to Aberdeen.  Considering we had to spend all that time at Amsterdam Airport, the kids did absolutely amazing and always had a smile on their faces.   Thank God for Pokémon Go. 

After a short delay on the last flight, we arrived back at Aberdeen Airport at midnight where the Kineil Coach was waiting for us.

Funnily enough, we arrived back in Forres at roughly the same time we departed exactly 1 week before. 

Summary

What an amazing week we had.  We would just like to say a massive, huge thank you to Martin Mahnkopf, Silvan Knoop, Anni Probst, Svell Krull, Tim Meissner and Tina Richter as well as Julian, Martin, Susen, Thorsten, Jorg and Frank and everyone else who welcomed us so warmly. 

We all had an amazing time, and the kids will remember it for a long long time.  Looking forward to the return leg already. 

Forres Area Soccer7s AGM

By

‘Forres Area Soccer 7s will be holding our AGM for the 2021 season on Tuesday 14th Dec from 18:30 at Grant Park Pavilion. Due to the increasing numbers of Covid-19 we will not be inviting any members to the meeting. We feel this is in the best interest of all involved and will help stop the spread of the virus. Please fell free to contact the club with any questions you may have regarding the AGM and we will respond with any info we have. Thank you for your continued support through these difficult times and please stay safe.

Club Statement 26 Sept 2020

By

Dear parents/guardians

As you are aware, due to the recent increased risk in infection we have all had to accept new Covid-19 restrictions as laid out by the Scottish Government. It is therefore with a heavy heart that the board of Soccer7s have decided that it is appropriate at this point to cancel the remainder of the 2020 season.

We have also decided that a full refund is in order, this will be payable as soon as possible. Please contact the club at your earliest convenience to arrange this.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused but we appreciate your understanding during this difficult time.

It goes without saying that Soccer7s will be back in early 2021.

Paul Lynch

Chairman

Club Statement 23 Jul 20

By

Dear Mums, Dads, Guardians and not least players,

As you may or may not be aware, grassroots football in Scotland (and the UK in general) is slowly beginning to start up again following the relaxation of certain Covid19 restrictions.

This is certainly very good news for the sport and Forres Soccer Sevens welcome this with open arms. However, based on the current guidance, the Board do not believe we can yet offer football in a safe manner especially as we cater for up to 200 players aged 4 years upwards. Ultimately, the safety and well being of our players, spectators and coaches is of paramount importance and until we can ensure everyone’s safety we will continue to remain closed.

In the meantime, we are proposing that we start to get our club ready for action again. We are in the process of organising the routine grass cutting and are considering actions that will be needed in the pavilion. Mandatory PPE, hand sanitiser and extra disinfectants etc are being ordered so that we have all we need when the time is right. We might not get a lot of notice and we want to be ready to go as soon as possible

We would like to thank you all for your patience and ongoing support for our club. Rest assured we will be open as soon as safely possible.

Watch this space.

Kind regards

Paul Lynch

Chairman

This year we are trying something new for a fundraising idea and that is a ‘Colour Run’.

The Colour Run is a fun run of 5km around Grant Park, Forres. Starting at 11:00am on Saturday 24th May, the event will run until all participants have finished the run. At the start and various points around the course there will colour stations where there will be volunteers ready to throw coloured powder at all the participants.

The Half Time Grill will also be opened during the event so please pop in and say hello to our friends Steph & Sue from K’s Coffee Shop, who will be running the Grill that day.

This is a fundraising event with all proceeds going back into the club. We are also running a competition where the person who raises the most amount of sponsorship will win a prize as a thank you.

We are really looking forward to this event as we think it will be a great day for everyone involved.

Special Mentions to:

Taidhg Geesteranus for being asked to play out of his normal position with no complaints, a great team player displaying the attributes we want to encourage here at Soccer 7s.

Harris Ross for his brilliant attitude throughout the whole session, giving high fives to his team mates when they did something well, checking on players after they went in for tackles and encouraging his whole team. Displaying the clubs core ethos right there, well done Harris. Tip of the day – be more like Harris.

Harris ‘Bobo’ Younie for his fantastic goalkeeping display even managing to save an almost certain goal with his butt, leaving the coaches and spectators speechless.
