About the Team
U12s - Nigel Sibley
The team formed 4 years ago as a result of too many players in the other U9 squads within Poole Town. Many of the boys were new to football and had never played in a match.
Since then, the 10 original boys (along with some new faces) have progressed massively and bonded well as a team. Last season the team earned promotion, and beat teams from higher leagues in the cup competitions.
This season the team are currently top of D3 in the Dorset Youth Leagues, and into the QF of the league cup. (27/02/2019)
U12s - Steve Lane
The team currently plays in the Bournemouth League Division 9 (top division for U12).
Our Rovers team started up 5 years ago initially playing 5v5 mini soccer in the Dorset League. For the 2016/17 season we switched to play in the Bournemouth League and were placed in the 3rd division. We have progressed to the top division at U12 playing 9v9 football.
As coaches, our focus has been to help the team to play good quality passing football whilst developing their own individual skills.
It has been great this season to see how far the boys have developed as players and as a team in a much more competitive league.
