DUNCAN COLEMAN 31/8/2008 and before 1/9/2009 mark.reeves@live.co.uk 01491 652007 8 West End Cholsey Wallingford Oxon OX10 9LW I’ve loved football since I was little; kicking a ball almost as soon as I could walk. I started my playing career with Crowmarsh Boys, and ended it with Crowmarsh Mens team, but since moving to the village I have switched the orange jersey for a (much better) blue one! My involvement with Bluebirds started when I took my son along to the Rising Stars, and when he moved into the U7s, I took on the role of managing the team (assisted by Duncan Coleman). Two seasons down, and we are now moving to 7-a-side on a larger pitch…I can’t wait! |

We’re now entering our fifth season together as a squad and it’s great to see that all players are signed up for another season together along with the support of Richard (also a qualified FA coach) and Garry (a PE teacher and goalkeeping specialist). |

31/8/2006 and before 1/9/2007 mjayc50@hotmail.com 07516 655022 I've been playing football all my life and love the game.Injuries put paid to my playing career so, like all good players, I've moved into management ! I'm currently working towards my FA Coaching Badges. I grew up in the village and although I've been all over the Country as an adult, there is no better place than "home" and no better Club than Cholsey Bluebirds. I am very proud to be involved with such a great group of adults, parents and especially, the children. |

BARRY PRIMMER 31/8/2005 and before 1/9/2006 dm1967@sky.com 01491 651145 07711 475960 18 Cross Road Cholsey OX10 9PE I have been involved with football in Cholsey for 37 years now , having played for the Bluebirds in my early years and progressing into Cholsey Utd men's football on Sunday mornings under the guidance of the unforgettable Ron ‘’Flippy’’ Fox. I was a regular for Wallingford Utd and AFC Wallingford Res on Saturdays. After a back injury put a stop to my playing I moved into management at United. This was my way of staying involved and was run along side my involvement with the Bluebirds under 6s at the time, which I took up to under 15s. My next challenge was my current team which, along side assistant Barry ‘’King’’ Primmer, we intend to relish every moment. We are committed to Cholsey Bluebirds and the Village that has always been our home. We hope that every single boy or girl who comes along will enjoy what we're trying to achieve. We always have time for anybody who would like to come along whether to play or train. We have met so many friends either playing with or against over the years and hope the boys and girls will do the same. |

31/8/2003 and before 1/9/2004 dave.vans@virgin.net 01491 652547 - 88 Station Road Cholsey OX10 9QB Since joining the Bluebirds as the Manager of the U7s in 2009, I have had the privilege of working with some wonderful children, exceptionally supportive parents and also a wonderful group of managers and officers within the Club. Andy Chapman, a parent, took over the team in 2010 as U8s and I welcomed a new group of U7s. I have stayed with them and the 2017/18 season will be my 8th year. Should have been just 2 more years and I could have retired . . . . . . . but the OMYFL have decided to include the U16s age group now, so STILL 3 more years left . . . . if I last that long ! |

31/8/2002 and before 1/9/2003 chappers73al@outlook.com - 07753 949575 - I grew up in Cholsey playing for various Bluebirds age groups up until my teenage years. I have played football on a regular basis over the years both at university and then when returning home with various company teams and groups of friends which I continue to do now. After moving away from Cholsey in my early 20s, I moved back in 2005 where I now live with my wife and three children. Initially, I was involved in the club as a parent watching my son play in the Under 7s. I took on the coaching and management responsibilities as they moved to Under 8s once the children had had an excellent grounding in football from Dave Evans (now U11s manager). Since the late 1990’s I have also been involved in running Cholsey Cricket Club and have successfully seen the club move from the recreation ground in the village to Cholsey Meadows. The aim of the cricket club is based on the same philosophies I apply to the football team - to promote an environment where people of any ability can come and enjoy taking part in sport in a friendly, safe and supportive environment. |
