Three teams are in action this weekend – which coincidentally will be the final weekend before all eleven Clydesdale & Clydesdale Western teams take to the field on the same weekend.<\/p>

As well as this, the club will be hosting the ‘Clydesdale Beach Party’ – details for this are at the end of the ‘Weekend Preview’.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

M3s vs. Uddingston 3s – 3.00pm (A)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Clydesdale Men’s 3s will hope to pick up their first points of the season when they visit Uddingston 3s for a 3.00pm pushback in Men’s West District Division One.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The M3s were arguably unfortunate to have gone home empty handed last week after their narrow 0-1 loss to Western Wildcats 3s – especially after a top performance from makeshift goalkeeper Matthew Lonergan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were a number of notable absentees from last weekend who now return to action including M3s captain Craig Bradley, veteran Ali Bleach and goalkeeper Dougie Mann. It will predictably be a tough game against an Uddingston 3s side which are expected to be similar to the M3s, with a blend of youth and experience in their squad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

M4s vs. Kelburne 4s – 2.00pm (A)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Clydesdale Men’s 4s play Kelburne 4s at Linwood, 2.00pm pushback, with an aim to bounce back from a difficult opening start last weekend.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coinciding with the M3s, the M4s were also missing a number of notable faces in their 1-5 defeat to East Kilbride last Saturday. This included the call of a recognisable goalkeeper, with the M4s playing eleven outfield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No such problems for Saturday, as ‘keeper Graham Bryson returns to action, whilst Donald Amour is one of six adults looking to guide a number of young prospects through what will no doubt be an entertaining tussle with Kelburne 4s in Men’s West District Division Two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L4s vs. Glasgow Accies 1s – 4.00pm (H)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Clydesdale Western 4s are in action for the first time this season in Women’s West District Division One, hosting Glasgow Accies for a 4.00pm pushback.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The L4s will once again be led by Marg Taylor who, along with a number of hockey veteran acquaintances, will look to lead through the latest crop of talented and upcoming ‘Dale Western youngsters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last season, the L4s finished 3rd in Women’s West District Division One, taking 26 points in the process. Whilst Glasgow Accies 1s, their opponents on Saturday, ended a place higher with a gap of eleven points in their favour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two sides also met in last season’s Scottish Women’s District Plate Final in May at the Glasgow National Hockey Centre – Cath Stirling scored both goals in a 2-0 win for Clydesdale Western 4s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CLYDESDALE BEACH PARTY – KICK START THE SEASON BY SAYING GOODBYE TO THE SUMMER!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After the completion of games on Saturday, the club would like ALL members to do their best to attend the club’s first social of the season – the Clydesdale Beach Party!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To say goodbye to the summer (if you call it that!), the M2s and L5s are organising a night for all to enjoy. 7.00pm start, and do your best to come in as much beach wear as possible. Hawaiian shirts, shorts, sunglasses, hats…you name it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
