Annual Dinner Dance

The club's annual dinner dance takes place next Saturday night, 6th February in the Canal Court Hotel with the tickets priced at £30.00. Among the awards to be handed out on the night will be our U21 men's team getting their championship winning medals and our Senior Ladies getting their championship runners-up medals.

Pave the Way

Work on our Pave the Way scheme was scheduled to begin last Monday but due to the inclement weather conditions it was not possible to mark a start. It is hoped that work on the new concrete driveway into the ground will begin in the very near future. To help fund this major piece of work we are asking all members and friends of the club to buy a metre of concrete at a cost of £50 and Pave the Way for the club. On completion of the work a plaque with the names of everyone who contributed to the project will be erected to acknowledge the part they played. The response so far from our club members (past, present and abroad), players (past and present), family and friends has been fantastic. Anyone who has pledged money to the scheme but has yet to pay can do so by calling to the club on Monday night at 9.00pm. If you can't make it to the club you can pay your donation to any committee member. If anyone wishes to make payment via bank transfer they can speak to any committee member who can provide you with the necessary details. Thanks again for your continuing generosity.

Underage Training

Training for all our underage footballers from U8s through to minors will begin in the coming weeks.
