Today we extend a warm Paycare Ground welcome to the players,<br />

supporters and officials of <strong>Wem</strong> <strong>Town</strong>. Win lose or draw the players and<br />

officials will be most welcome to join us for our award winning hospitality.<br />

You may have noticed a pretty significant change at the Ground since our<br />

game against Shifnal just two weeks ago today. Yes- I am delighted to<br />

confirm that the work on the floodlights is now complete. I must<br />

congratulate the contractors Sports Ground Development Ltd and<br />

Advanced Electrical Ltd who worked tremendously hard through heavy rain<br />

and winds to get the job done. Garry and I stood at the Darlaston Ladies<br />

game last Sunday in glorious sunshine admiring the fantastic facility The<br />

Paycare Ground has become. We were both tremendously proud of all of<br />

the committee, players, management, supporters and sponsors who have<br />

been part of our journey. Unbelievably it is less than 5 years since we took<br />

on the running of The Pavilion which was run down and was open grass<br />

land when we took it on. Our progress has been brilliant and we are all<br />

pinching ourselves at what we have achieved.<br />

Well if we didnʼt know it before we now know just how good and tough the<br />

Premier Division is and how big a step up it is from Division One. After a<br />

fabulous opening day outing to Pershore <strong>Town</strong> where we fully deserved an<br />

excellent point we were brought down to earth by Shifnal <strong>Town</strong>. Last<br />

Saturday at Smethwick Rangers we were not at our best but managed a<br />

decent draw.<br />
