With the national leagues still to begin, the focus this Saturday is on our teams competing in the district leagues.
The Women's 2s are at home to Rottenrow Blue Sox (1200). Wildcats finished second in the division last season and will be keen to go one better this term. Captain Emma Reid has a youthful squad at her disposal and will feel confident of getting off to a winning start.
The 3s are also at home. They face old rivals Dalziel (1530). Wildcats have a few more experienced players on board for this season and this should help them a lot as they aim to progress in Division 3. A win here would be an excellent start to the campaign as they try to build some early momentum.
On the Men's side the 3s go to Helensburgh (1100) with the guts of last year's second team making up their squad. Ewan McKechnie, reprising his role as skipper from a couple of seasons back, is surely determined to retain the title the 3s picked up last season while making serious inroads to the Reserve Cup. Anything other than an away win would be a huge shock.
The 4s don't have a game but the 5s are at Glasgow Green to play Uddingston 5s . (1530)Last season was an enjoyable one for Calum Beedie's team and it will be interesting to see whether the overall strength of the club can filter down so that they can mount a promotion challenge rather than occupying their usual mid-table spot.
Neither first team has a
game but the Men's 2s play Uddingston 2s in a friendly on Friday night at Auchenhowie (1900).
