The National Youth Development League again has two age groups. The under-17 and under-20 squad kick off their season very early on April 18 with a visit to Hillingdon while the under-13 and under-15 team travel to Sutton on May 2.

Added to this, the under-13s and 15s will have their own separate Sussex Leagues with evening matches culminating in their grand finals in September.

In addition to the league fixtures, many athletes will be involved in county, area and national championships together with open meetings and schools events – so the next five months look like being a busy time for all concerned.

The Chichester club are now back at their summer headquarters at the University of Chichester and further information can be obtained from the club website.
