Westend win league
Fish.Nets Darren helps football team to victory
Darren Hauck, part of our technical support team at Fish.Net and an avid footballer has helped his club win promotion into division III of the Huddersfield & District Assoc Football League.
In addition to winning promotion, Westend have also clinched the District League's Groom Cup – equivalent to the League Cup.
Darren, who is also a dedicated Chelsea supporter, has played in defence for Westend since 2004, and for a short time this year took over as manager of the second team while continuing to play for the first team.
The opinion shared by Darren and the rest of Westend team; is that the season's achievements were “a great squad effort and everyone should be very proud to have been part of such a triumphant season”. Special thanks also went to ‘the gaffer' Ricky Thwaites who founded the club in 1991 with only four players and has seen it grow to over 400.
The photo shows Westend collecting the Division Champions cup - Darren is the fifth from the right, or as he put it “easily the best looking one on the team!”
