SHEPPEY Swifts Under 11s have put a turbulent time behind them and are now thriving in Ambassador Evesham League Pool ‘B’.

Having finished bottom of the league last season and seen their manager and a host of players leave, the future looked bleak.

However, Rob Righton and Craig Davies took on the role of running the team and, along with Andy Baker and several new players, they have won two and drawn two of their first five matches this term.
