Wanderers have confirmed they will be taking on eight new scholars into their Youth system for 2002/3. The eight names are made up up of six regulars from the Under 17 set-up; Leon Gordon, top scorer with the Under 17's; defenders Andy Reilly, Matt Heggie and Mark Boland plus midfielders Matty Fox and James Rogers. The other two names are both strikers who teamed up with the Under 17's in February after being spotted by the Wanderers scouts. They are London based Robert Tungatt and local County player Nathanial Griffiths. Griffiths scored a hat-trick on his debut for the Under 17's and along with Tungatt, continued to impress before being offered the three year scholarship.
These are the faces to look out for in the coming years:
It's also understood that 2nd Year Scholars Lewis Cook, Jonny Dixon, Pat Lynott, Ryan Parsons and Jack Smillie are all being offered a third year football scholarship. German midfieler Kai Sudheimer is returning to his home country. Click here for 2nd Year Profiles
