Mens A Team
The Wilmslow Men’s 2nd team will play throughout the 2024/25 season in NEMLA Division one having been promoted last season after an undefeated season and winning their Flags final game vs Cheadle C. The A team know they will have a year packed with tough games and are looking forward to playing a higher level of lacrosse and proving that they can compete at that level!
The A team is lead by captain and goalkeeper Matt Croney who since joining the club in the 2022/23 season has become a keystone among the senior ranks. Croney brought a wealth of playing experience to both 1st and A team over the short time at Wilmslow and is a much respected and loved member of the club. Under the leadership of Matt.

Matthew Croney

A former Wales International who has a wealth of playing experience. Despite only joining Wilmslow midway through the 202/23 after being dragged out of retirement, Croney has become a much respected and vital member of the club in terms of his leadership on and off the field.

Laurence Pierce
Position: Defence
Number: 50
Pierce has worked hard since his return to Wilmslow and is a regular in what has proven to be a solid defensive unit. Great checking ability and positional sound while also a confident carrier of the ball when clearing.

Scott Marshall
Position: Defence

Scott brings size to the defense and delivers the big checks that keep the opposition at bay. A solid communicator and co-captain for the Wilmslow A team who brings a wealth of experience to the field.

Tom Bowe
Position: Defence
Number: 44
Having successfully captained the men's A team to league and cup victory and securing promotion, Tom has proven to be a valuable member of the club. Usually found running long stick midfield and gobbling up ground balls. Brother of Mark Bowe.

Michael Siddall
Position: Attack
Number: 8
Siddall has impressed over the past 2 seasons, making a number of 1st team appearances in the 2023/24 season. A solid feeder with good vision who also has great finishing skills in front of the goal.

Charlie Warriner
Position: Attack
Number: 18
Warriner is a strong creative leftie that can come through the attack or midfield. Solid feeder but his strength is the quick release when letting his shot loose. Another product of the Wilmslow junior teams.

Brin Kenyon
Position: Defence
Number: 17
Regular start in the A team defensive line up. Brin works with England Lacrosse in a sports development role and has been an important club member in restarting the clubs youth programme over the past 3 years.

Scott Dearnaley
Position: Midfield
Number:
Dearnaley only joined the club early in the 2024/25 season but has been impressive to date. Big middie who can up and down the field and get the dirty work done. Expects big things from this player in the coming years as he settles in at Wilmslow.

Cole Chesterton
Position: Midfield
Number: 43
Cole only joined recently by is improving rapidly having working his way from the B team to now became a regular A team midfielder. There's no doubt that Cole will grow as a player as he gains experience on the field in the coming seasons.

Jimmy Acton
Position: Attack
Number:
Yet another player come back to the fold after time out of the game. Acton brings much experience with him and has been a long serving member of the club. Welcome back Jimmy.

Tom Brooks
Position: Attack
Number:
After an 8 year absence from the game this shifty attacker makes a return to the sport. Once Brooks gets a few games under his belt then he could push for a first team spot. College experience in the US and former Welsh international player. Despite leaving lacrosse for years he is in amazing shape as a keen hill runner.

Jon Mountney
Position: Midfield
Number:
Making a return to the game after close to a decade. Former England player who was a member of the legendary quadruple winning Wilmslow team. Jon might have a layer of rust shake off but his lacrosse iQ will be valuable as we bring players through the club.

Matthew Conway
Position: Defence
Number:
Conway picked up the sport at Liverpool University before being one of the key members of the Liverpool Club team. Sadly the Covid pandemic made things difficult for the club and most active players joined Wilmslow. Although Matt had a period away from the game, he is a strong defensive presence with good lax iQ.
