After much consideration we've decided to fold. Just can't get enough boys out on a regular basis and no point going into a season when we'd struggle to pick a squad. Sad times but plenty of good memories over the past 9 years. I'd like to thank everyone that has been connected with the club at any time and wish our current players all the best in finding new clubs.

Some real great games against you over the years. Sadly I don't think you'll be the last to fold this season! Terrible news!!

Just a few had young families or more work on so guess priorities changed. It was probably going to happen eventually, just disappointed it did after a decent season last year!
