HUDDERSFIELD FA Minors start their quest for the West Riding County Cup when they take on Halifax at Natty Lane on Sunday (2.00).

This season’s format is different from previous years, with three groups of three with matches home and away.

Goole are he other side in Huddersfield’s group.

With the resignation of manager Barry Fella, after occupying the post for 17 years, his assistant for the last two seasons, Chris Haigh, is now in charge.

The difficulty of his task can best be judged by highlighting that there are only three teams in the RCD Under 17 League from which he can select his squad.

Minors: P Day, A Crowther, J Garrety, J Langfield, S Bates, M McSherry, J Shields, E Chambers, T Oakes, E Hanley-Heeley, L Johnson, L Torczynowvcz, J Lang, M Bottomley, D Hinchliffe, J Hargreaves, J Hartley, B Johnson, L Eastwood.
