A RECORD number of teams will compete in this season's Taunton and District Youth League, now sponsored by Tony Pryce Sports.

The sports shop chain has taken over sponsorship of the league from the County Gazette which supported the league for two years.

Marketing director Kevin Snell said: "We are grateful to the Taunton Youth League to give us the opportunity to support them.

"This sponsorship will tie in well with our continued support of over ten years to the Under-8, 9 and 10 Taunton Leagues."

League secretary Jim Walker said: "We are very grateful to Tony Pryce Sports for sponsoring us and wish to thank the Somerset County Gazette for their support over the previous two seasons."

Two new clubs Cotford St Luke and Nether Stowey have joined the league which has 126 sides up from 118. The Under-14 section has had to split into three divisions to accommodate its 28 sides. The season starts on the weekend of September 10 and 11.

Meanwhile, Arthur White (chairman), Walker (secretary) and Jeff Brown (treasurer) were all re-elected at the league's AGM.
