All you need to know about getting started with the M&Y section of the club for the new season. 1st Session, Training Venues , Who to Contact

FIRST DAY OF TRAINING - SUNDAY 3RD SEPTEMBER 10AM-12PM
Traditionally we like the whole club to come and train at the same venue for the first two sessions of the season (3rd & 10th Sept). This is so we can welcome everyone to the Club from all age groups and also to help the kids (and parents!) understand and experience that they are part of ‘One Club’ and not just their own individual age groups.
Thereafter we are split over 2 locations for the rest of the season to ensure all age groups have sufficient space to train and play safely.
Please make your way to St Mary’s Teddington Lock Pitches on Broom Road, other side of the road from The Anglers pub, for a prompt 10am start.
