We have grown from 20 children in Sept'04 to currently having registered over 120 children and run one U9 squad, one U10 squad, two U11 squads, one U12 squad, an U13 squad and an U14 squad. We also run the Football Fun Factory for reception year players that are too young for our playing squads but still wish to benefit from FA qualified coaching.
