The club has benefited greatly from these facilities and has membership of between 70 and 80 with ages ranging from 12 to 70 and over.

In the future the club has the ambition to add further teams, so that each age group is represented, and to subsequently improve the facilities down at our local ground near the windmill. We are always looking for more players, volunteers and most importantly of all, more coaches.
We endeavour to deliver quality, age-appropriate coaching to all our teams to support long-term player development and foster confidence and self-esteem. We expect everyone at the club to encourage each other as managers, players and spectators and to promote fair play and respect. We do our best to keep the costs involved to a minimum, so that participation and inclusion are not down to financial circumstances.
