New players can just turn up and join in the first couple of sessions for free. Alll playing membership is completed online through this website (click on the membership tab on the main page). Players are also asked to wear club short and socks which can be purchased through our online club shop or through our shop in the clubhouse which is open on a Sunday pre and post training/friendly matches.

Parents & Guardians

Remain responsible for their children at training/matches and need to stay, especially if their children are Under 12 years of age.

We empathise with those who have to spread themselves between pitches but please do ask another parent for help if you need to run into clubhouse or across to another pitch, so we know where you are etc.
