Squad Rotation

With Zephyr Rovers now confirmed as a Division 1 side again, manager Steve Hall says Rovers are better placed than previously to do well in the big time. "We have a bigger stronger squad than last time around" said Hall "but we're going to need a bit of squad rotation as several players are heading off overseas for stints and ensuring we have a team out some weeks will be a challenge". Hall said four Friday games would be interesting as we know Friday lunch time is a popular networking time. "It's not uncommon for a football manager to go scouting on a Friday" said Hall "and it is certainly and opportunity to discuss tactics with interested parties although there not as many interested parties as I'd like". Hall said ensuring you get a squad on the park is an important dimension of of indoor football. "You could have the best five players in New Zealand in your squad but if they can never play you're stuffed" said Hall "we have a good talent base and the two key factors this season in doing well will be playing to our potential and getting a team to the game".
