With 600 members and over 30 squads, it takes a huge amount of effort on and off the field to make the magic happen week in, week out, in a safe, compliant, and player-centric fashion. While the above members have stepped up to serve on a completely voluntary basis it’s never been truer that we need teamwork from all our members to make the dream work.
Got a question, query, or great idea? Reach out to any of the committee members to get the ball rolling.
Farewell and Thank You!
At the AGM we bid farewell to wonderful long-serving and hard-working committee members that served with distinction and made a difference in their time. Suzanna Lowth, in her role as girls football coordinator oversaw a huge growth in girls football participation rates and the energy brought to our club by all our amazing soccer sisters. Elaine O’Connor, the former madame chair, led the committee for five years, through rapid expansion, governance overhauls, Clubmark certification, financial stability, a two-year pandemic, Tribe Trials, and unprecedented success on and off the field. Thank you for your service, true grassroots legends! Big boots to fill for the new committee!
As a club, we hit 20 years old in September. We have a past to be proud of and a future to be excited about. Here’s to a wonderful new season of fun, football, fitness, and friendships.
Hon Derg!
