“At the top of the order Paul Smith and Cian Evans have got us off to some great starts and Tom Swain with the ball has been excellent.

“It is our first full season in the league after promotion and we hope to continue this form.”

“It’s great how they have introduced young players who will hopefully progress to the first team in time.”
