THE Daily Echo takes another nostalgic peep through time – this week to December 1999.
Young Saints were presented with prizes by then-player Trond Egil Soltvedt at Ocean world. After the presentation the youngsters were treated to a movie.
The Young Saints made the paper again later in the month when they took part at a coaching course at Oaklands Community School.
Other local sporting talent struck a pose in front of the camera when Solent Stars basketball players Colin Irish and Alan Cunningham opened the Millennium Garden at Netley Abbey Junior School.
While the events pictured were taking place, this is what was happening nationally:
