The Juniors bad a fine season: eleven games were won, one was drawn and only three were lost. The success of the team was due to excellent performances by the defence. A rather nonchalant forward-line was not always effective, and it was no surprise that our chief scorer was a defender, Shulz. He finished the season with 20 goals to his credit, followed by the unpredictable McGreal who “netted” on 12 occasions. Howes was always confident in goal, and Ian Dodd played an exceptionally fine schemer’s game. A great deal of credit must go to Shulz who covered a tremendous amount of ground in each game, and to Dick Farrel who played consistently well at full-back. A large percentage of the team were second formers which should make the foundations of another fine team next season. On behalf of the players, I would like to thank Messrs. Cherry, Holbrook and Howes for refereeing our home games, and all members of staff who supported us. Our thanks also go to the girls, whose catering services were greatly appreciated.
