We are pleased to announce that this June we will be playing a touring team from the USA again. The game is scheduled to take place on Monday 4th June from 5-8pm, at Broughton High School.

To prepare for this we will be having pick up games on Thursdays from 7 to 8 at Broughton High School. The first game will be this Thursday (10th June 2012). Anyone and everyone is welcome to come. It will be 5 pounds per head per session to help pay for the pitch hire.

Please keep in mind that this is intended to be a pick up game, not a training session. That means no drills, no discussion of plays or strategy. Due to the short time span, we’ll do a quick 5 minute warm up and then play 25 min halves with some time in the end for the losing team to clear up.

If you would like any more information about the upcoming game or if you would like to join us for any of the pick up games please feel free to Contact Us.
