2020/21 Memberships launched on 1 May 2020

Adam Tyrer's message to all members and supporters of the club mentioned that we would be asking you to help in alleviating some of the significant financial hit caused to the club through the cancellation of all our playing and commercial activities towards the end of the season; by paying membership subscriptions early. To this end the membership registration process for next season is now open for both Non-Playing and Minis & Youth playing members. Please visit the membership pages and RENEW TODAY! Thanks.
