BURY
It is important for any team to be able to
produce their own talent, particularly in the
current financial climate and this is an area
that they appear to have covered. Coaching
staff overseeing this part of the club are
confident they’ve a number of juniors with
the potential for a bright future.
In order to help their youngsters to
successfully make the transition into the
senior game they also have a number of
additional sides running. This allows them
to give players experience of the adult
game even if they are not yet considered
ready for first team action which can be an
important step in the development process.
Another benefit of having extra teams is
that it allows the first XV to benefit from far
greater strength in depth. If they are ever
left short on numbers through injury or
work commitments they have the option of
calling players up with a limited amount of
disruption.
The superb work that Bury are doing in
relation to the development of young
players is to be admired and is playing a
part in the on the field success that they are
experiencing. Hopefully they will be able
to continue in the same manner for many
years to come.
