EVAN WATTS GOLF TRIAL
Thanks to the efforts of Rob Owen he was asked again the following year to go for a six-week trial and on this occasion decided to give it a try - and he was delighted when he was picked for the Academy against Birmingham City at the Landore Training Ground and they won! Nothing came of the trial but to the Watts' family surprise he had an invite the following campaign for a six-week extended trial as a goalkeeper, but Evan decided he was enjoying himself playing football with his local pals and decided against it. It all seems a long way from the time he set out in the round-ball game at some Saturday morning 'fun football sessions' under the watchful eye of Bob Nelson and took to it straight away.įrom there he started playing at Camrose in 2013, playing up a year and doing nicely on the wing as he scored his share of goals alongside the likes of Sam Pritchard, Will Wilson, Gareth John, Matthew Dyson, Stuart Roach-James and Tom Williams under the coaching leadership of Paul Williams, David Roach-James and Evan’s father Neil.įrom there he was invited to take part in a satellite club for Swansea City at Tasker Milward School every Wednesday evening, with players from all over the county taking part - and he must have done well because from there he was asked to attend a trial for the Swansea City Academy, where he not only played on the wing but had five minutes in goal to help out. Games are played over four quarters and the Young Swans beat their counterparts from West Bromwich Albion by 8-4, a victory that was doubly pleasing because Evan, who shared the keeping duties with a team mate, only conceded one of the goals. Then it was back home for a short break before trekking back to Fairwood, in Swansea, at 9am on Sunday so that he could play in goal for the Swansea City team for his age group against West Bromwich Albion. If you wanted proof of how busy it sometimes becomes can be gauged from a recent Saturday where he and dad Neil left home near Haverfordwest at 8am so that he could attend a training session with Swansea City at Landore from 10-12 noon and straight from there journeyed a few miles to Llandarcy to take part in an indoor trial with the Welsh Cricket Squad from 1-6pm. Honorary Pallbearers will be Lawrence Browder, Ed Jones, Earl James (former Mayor), and the Meagher’s Marauders and Wives.Tweet Evan Watts loves being involved in a whole range of sports and as well as being a goalkeeper with Swansea City and a Welsh trialist in cricket, has also played rugby and tennis, done well at cross country and been a more than useful swimmer.
