At the 2018/19 season awards evening, the U15 boys celebrated nine of the squad receiving their 'ten year awards'.

Pictured with their awards are from left to right: Fred Taylor, Archie McDermott, Owen Gilbert, Kenz Chedzgoy, Dec Samme, Matty Clark, Ty Chatterton and Fred Whitaker.

Even though they were playing against teams a year older in the West Riding Girls U16 Junior Trophy, they also managed a great run to the quarter finals of that competition too.

Congratulations to all the players and coaching staff, and good luck for the season ahead in Division 1!

On Saturday 29th June, we held our second girls' football gala at our home of Warrenside Sports Complex. Teams from 19 different clubs took part, and on behalf of the club we would like to thank them all for supporting our club gala.

The total number of 33 teams consisted of almost 300 girls across five age groups (U8, U9, U10, U11 & U15), split into morning and afternoon sessions.

Once again, we had great weather and all the girls did well to put on such an excellent display of football.

I’m sure the food, drinks and ice creams provided by a small army of kind helpers, kept them re-fuelled in the hot sunshine.

Again, a big thanks to those that gave up their time before, during and afterwards to help make the day a success.

At our club meeting this evening, two long-serving stalwarts of the club received engraved glass tankards and the grateful thanks of everyone present in recognition of their outstanding contributions of voluntary service to the club. Phil Alford and Simon Walker both put away their tactics boards, bibs and cones for the last time at the conclusion of their under-18 season earlier this year. Simon dedicated 14 years to coaching his boys' team, with Phil not far behind notching up 10 years on the sideline with his team of girls, in addition to a stint as club chairman. The experience and dedication of both men will be sorely missed around the club and we would like to wish them both well for the future.
