Season 2001/2002 Squad

Newton Orient FC were formed in 1997 by Graham Cox and Andy Eggbeer. Having played Sunday football with various teams, they decided to form their own side, a nucleas of players which have played with them over the years joined them and helped to  establish the side. Ten of the players who played during that first season are still actively involved with  the Orient. The decision to join a league was not a difficult one, Having confirmed their status as one of the best sunday sides around, they turned their head to some friendlies against league sides with much success, it was felt a new challenge was needed. So having entered the Torbay combination league for the 2001/2002 campaign, we had a reasonably good first season. Orient finished 5th in the league and losing semi finalist in the supplementary cup. With a strengthend squad and renewed enthusiasim, we are optimistic of an even better campaign this season
