On Saturday afternoon we had a visit from Stacey & Neil from L+S leaflet distribution. Our football club committee representatives had a really good chat with them both regarding the local game and our plans for the season ahead.
Stacey & Neil very kindly agreed to become one of our match sponsors for this 24/25 season. ๐ค๐ป
L+S leaflet distribution are a small business but have supported Shorts FC with match sponsorship for the past 2 seasons and we are very grateful for their continued support. ๐๐ป

Next up to sign on at Aircraft Park is Neil Warnock.
Neil came to the club over preseason and showed he was a very calm midfielder that suits the squad. After settling in very quickly, we are delighted to have Neil with us this upcoming season and beyond. ๐ค๐ป

Thomas McAleer put pen to paper for us as he joins from Dundela. Thomas is a young hard working winger who has really impressed during preseason. We believe there's big things that could come from young "Tink", and we are delighted to have him on board. This latest signing is a good indication that our partnership with Dundela Football Club is working brilliantly.

Today we are extremely saddened to hear the news that our good friend and club legend Geordie Trueick has sadly passed away.
Geordie was one of life's true gentlemen and will be sorely missed by all at the club.
Our deepest condolences go out to Geordie's wife Lynn and his son Nicolas at this most difficult of times. ๐๐ฅ

This years annual Preseason bus trip took us to Castlederg to play Killen Rangers FC .
Although our squads were a bit weakened, due to holidays etc, it gave us a chance to bring along some of our U19 squad. This will prove to be of real benefit in the season(s) ahead. The younger lads even got well into the "player initiation songs".. Super effort lads ๐๐ป
The matches themselves were very competitive, played in the right spirit, but Killen edged both games ๐๐ป

Another tough match last night, this time against the Ams. This is becoming a regular preseason fixture between our two clubs, and this year it was our lads that came out the winners, after a good 1st half display.
As Greg continues to build the squad and the fitness levels, it's important the squad keeps pushing as the early tough Cup fixtures are slowly being released.
Thanks to TJ and his squad for the match, and we wish Bangor Amateurs the best of luck for the season ahead. ๐ค๐ป
Well done to our Squad for last night's efforts, but it's all about the minutes in the legs. ๐ค๐ป๐ตโช๏ธ๐ต

This will be our 3rd pre season fixture in a week, so the players are getting plenty of football early on. Best of luck to all involved. ๐ตโช๏ธโ๏ธ

1st team manager Greg and his coaching team take on their former club/team mates at Londonderry Park, in an early ko. Playing higher level opposition will help drive our squad fitness levels up another notch. It's all about the minutes in the legs for the lads at this stage.

This is Neil P*e Mcdade 1st game in charge of the Reserves and again an early kick off. Neil will be finding out a lot more than just fitness levels at Aircraft Park, as he starts to work out who fits where in his system for the coming season.
The Reserves will face Dundela U20s and be in no doubt, they'll be well drilled, under boss Jonny McKay. This match is another great example of our Community partnership in effect with Dundela Football Club .
Best of luck to all involved today ๐ตโช๏ธ

Great catch up with Darren from Shorts Football Club to talk about the amazing progress of the Wellbeing Hub and the development of the Forgotten Footballers programme.
Always great to pop into clubs and see sustained progress and future potential. I loved the ethos of creating a culture of support for players and a pathway for young players into the senior team underpinned by values of respect and support ๐

Thursday night's Barnetts session is the one everyone loves to hate. The previous 2 sessions had been at our own ground at Aircraft Park, and these had been very football based fitness. So Barnetts is always the gear change that lets players know that preseason has started in earnest. Today, we return to Aircraft Park as we work towards Tuesday night's friendly match vs. Shankill Utd at the Hammer.
