| The Fellowship Trophy is awarded in each age group to the team which in the opinion of the other team managers has contributed most toward achieving the aims of the Norfolk Christian Youth League. This season's the results will be announced at the 5-a-side competition on 6th June. |
| From time to time folk do leave kit behind. If you wish to let it be known that you have possession of someone's left-behinds, please get in touch with the league secretary who will pass the information for inclusion here. |
| Managers!!! Please can you remember to complete your results sheets for each game and get them back to the NCYL Database at Surrey Chapel (address details are on the results sheets). If they do not get these, the results shown on the web site might not be a true reflection of the teams' positions. Please note too, that the fellowship trophies in each age group are based on the information provided by you in the Results Sheet. If you don't send them in, the league will not be able to get a true picture of the season from the important perspective of fair play, attitude and all round behaviour. |
| Players!!! If the web site doesn't show your teams results then it's probably because your manager hasn't passed the results sheets over to the NCYL Database. Please get onto your managers to make sure he or she gets the sheets sent back quickly. That way you won't risk your team appearing at the bottom of the table when they perhaps should be at the top!!! |
