Jess makes the grade
Great news from the regional trials - Jess has made the regional squad!
Jess therefore joins a very select group of Letchworth girls who have made the East U17 or U18 squad - an achievement that only four other girls from our club have matched (the others being Hayley, Sasha, Carla, and Nim Parnell). Its also a sign of how much Jess has developed as a player as she did not make the squad when she was an U14 (whereas Emily, Natalie and Nikki did - though admittedly any or all of them might also have got in this time if they have put themselves forward for the trials).
Its a great achievement, but it does mean that both Jess and Hayley will be largely unavailable for the club until virtually Easter. Training starts in a couple of weeks time and - hopefully - both Jess and Hayley will make their debuts for their teams on 8th February against Thames Valley at Old Albanians.
