Subs and Winter Training The first training session for the new season will be run on Wednesday 31st August at which you can also collect a new Fry's shirt once you have paid your annual subs and handed in a membership form. The membership form can be downloaded here. (The shirt will belong to the club and so will be provided at no cost to you.) All members need to submit a new membership form. It may seem a hassle filling one in each year, but it guarantees that we have your up-to-date contact details in case of an emergency. Training will run to the normal timings (see here if in doubt) and members of the committee will be at the pitch from 6.30pm for the ladies to collect subs/forms and hand out shirts and from 7.30pm for the men. (The start date for junior training has not yet been decided.) Since there will be no matches for the first few weeks, everyone coming to training must pay the usual amount of £2 to cover the cost of the pitch hire. |

Goal-keeper training Goal-keeper training sessions will be running from Wednesday 31st August for 4 weeks. These will be coached by James Gerrish under the supervision of Andy-Rhys Jones. There is no extra cost (beyond the normal £2) for attending these sessions which are open to existing goal-keepers and also wanting to learn (subject to numbers, approximately 6 maximum). If you would like to attend these, please register your interest by emailing Richard May. |

Committee meeting A recent Committee meeting was held on Monday 25th July. Minutes will be available here shortly. |

Shirts The order for ladies' and men's shirts was placed at the end of February. The ladies' shirts have now arrived and look very nice. They are TK Florenz shirts in navy blue with white inserts. The men's shirts will arrive in about 6 weeks time since they had to be specially ordered to ensure that the colour matched the ladies'. At the recent committee meeting it was agreed that these shirts will belong to the club rather than individual players. As such, no current players will have to pay for a shirt. Equally, if someone leaves the club they will be expected to return the shirt. Since we are so near to the end of the season, it was also decided to distribute all the shirts in September. |
