Colonials dropout for season
GRAND BI.ND - Due to a lack
of players, the Grand Bend Coloni-
als Senior Soccer team has dropped
out of the London and District Soc-
cer League for this season.
"We only had about 10 guys sign
up to play this year and we knew
we couldn't run.a team with that
many so we just decided to drop out
for this year," said Tony Mennen,
of the Colonials.
Mennen said the lack of interest
caught him by surprise this year
but interest comes in phrases and
doesn't think they will be gone
long from the league. '
"It was sort of unexpected, but all
teams go through stages like that.
Guys move up or move away, and
go to college and there is nothing.
you can do about that. I have been
playing for a lot. of .years, but .I
think I will sit this year out and
just cnjoy myself," said Mennen.
Mennen, who is also president of
the Grand Bend Soccer Association,
said all other minor soccer levelsin
the .village will be played as usual
this summer.
Mennen said some of the Coloni-
al players who wanted to play, have
signed up with other teams in the
league, including the Exeter Cen-
tennials, but most will also sit this
yearout as well.
Exeter coach Dick Lord said one
player from the Colonials played in
the Centennials opening game Sun-
day, which they lost 7-0 to London
in Exeter, but added he will wel-
come more players from Grand
Bend if any are interested.
Graltd Bend's drop out leaves
eight teams, Nairn, Wallaceburg,
Strathroy, Chatham, Real West,
Wallacetown, Chatham Express and
Exeter, in the Western Division of
the London and District Soccer
League. .
Lord said Sunday's game was the
coldest opening gamebf the season
in the seven years he has been asso-
ciated with the Centennials.
He added the cold and blustery
winds played.havoc with the team's
performance but London's experi-
ence was also very evident.
"It really looked like our first
game out there but they, (London),
have been playing inside all winter
and we just couldn't compete with
that, but we will get better," said
Lord
The Centennials'- will play
next ganrti�te Sunday night at 6
in Strathroy.
