After a very early start to the day the 'Castle Men 1 took on newly promoted Middlesbrough on the opening day of the season. The travelling party of 11 players will form the core of the first team throughout the season and featured 6 teenagers resulting in an average age of 23 (Falko's 38 years boosting this average!). Sixteen year old Roo Scott and seventeen year olds Roman Neveykin and Rashad Ali all played significant roles in a 3-1 win where Chris Anderson took the MVP award.

Congratulations on a great start to the season lads!
