Our brand new Introducing series continues and we have had a really good response from our players to the questions we have posed. Second to feature is a young striker, set to embark on his first full season in men's football...

Sam Barson is the latest young player to sign forms with Letcombe FC and will really benefit from the fact that we have reformed our Reserve side for the 2014/15 season. This will give him the perfect opportunity to show what he can do in what is set to be a competitive Hellenic League Division 2 West.

Sam has been involved with our First Team squad throughout pre-season and featured as a substitute in the 3-3 draw with Reading YMCA. He scored his first goal for the club came in the 2-1 win over Saxton Rovers Reserves.

Despite his young age, Sam has already shown he has the ability to lead the line. He has the talent to get into dangerous areas and will be hoping to challenge for a first team place as he gains match experience. The signs are that he will become the latest young player to make his mark at Bassett Road.
