The ongoing pitch improvement project was paying great dividends with the pitches looking at their best. With the start of the pitch side development project getting ever closer it is an exciting time for the club. The annual six-a-side tournament had once again been a great success.
Adrian thanked all the committee, grounds team and coaches for all their hard work during the season, and all the players and parents for their support.
