In terms of cost, the entire season will see a fee of £75 and this will cover sessions from before Christmas, as well as those that will come this term. We build a break even budget and the fees cover pitch hire, coaches and entry fees for West Tournaments. 

In terms of kit, I have ordered a number of hoodies and sweatshirts as well as T shirts. All players will receive a new pair of county socks. The kit bundle of hoodie or sweatshirt and Training T shirt is £35 with them priced at £25 (hoodie/sweatshirt) and £10 for the T shirt.

Many thanks for your patience and support.
