Gavin Sartain has been invited by the FA to go over to Japan for 2 weeks to work with the JFA in refereeing some of their national league games with some of the top referee's in japan. Great opportunity for Gavin who is looking forward to the challenge.

He leaves end of month so misses being  involved in any local game until at least November.

 With Dan Mawer recruited by FA to referee in The FA National League next season, Grimsby futsal referees can feel rightly proud.
