Joined the club last season and was top goal scorer with 19 goals in 19 games. Maggot is a quality foward who had he played more games would surely have been the first player to hit the twenty goal mark for the club. Could this be his year? Yes it was and he got 20 league goals as well. |

Nick Whorton
Nick is one of four players who has been with the club since it was formed. Nick's partnership with Leigh in the centre of defence has gone from strength to strength. A solid powerhouse of a defender who also has great speed, good in the air and scores the odd goal. |

David Saunders
Dava has been with the club since it joined the BWAFL and is a tough tackling right back who started out as a forward then moved back in to midfield before finding his true position in defence. Doesn't score that many goals but when he does they are usually out of this world and he won Goal of the Season last year. |
