Our club is a friendly one with teams in many age groups, some of the mini soccer teams train on a Saturday morning between 9:30 to 11:30. As well as Sat, the U9s who have been together for two years train on Tuesday evenings between 5:00 and 6:30. This is our first competitive season, and are in the Norfolk Youth Combination league B.
