We closed the Club on the 17th March 2020 following government guidance to help reduce the spread of COVID-19. 5 months have now passed and whilst most outdoor sports have returned the news is not as positive for indoor sports.
Our governing body have not yet permitted Futsal to return but even when it does get the green light from the FA we will be reliant on indoor venues being able to operate without restriction and until this happens a return to our normal activities will not be possible.
As a committee we are exploring outdoor options to get our squads playing again even if this means a reduced training programme. However at present even this is proving problematic with options limited to hard surface areas which are in a poor state of repair and schools being unwilling to let to external parties. One of our Club values is innovation so we will continue to work with our partners to achieve a solution to allow a safe return for Futsal as soon as possible.
In the meantime we have been working on some exciting things which will be announced in full when we open again including:
- A new training and matchday kit
- 5 new Club sponsors
- Updated Club website
- Our own home venue project
- New social media branding for the new season
- Academy programme re-vamp
- Updated coaching curriculum
- New learning zone exclusively for members on our Club website
- New season long County wide Junior Futsal league
