As in previous years, a hardy team of volunteers will be active that day by cleaning, scrubbing, polishing and mainly painting everything to make the club look smarter for the start of the season. (If past years are anything to go by, that will includes dogs, children and anyone else who gets in the way of the flailing roller!)

The invitation is there - it is your club let's do it proud as we have a whole new beginning ahead of us and want to hit the ground running. Any player, coach, parent, supporter, bored local resident is welcome the more people the less work to do.

It is confirmed that tea and biscuits will be provided to all those in attendance - please tell a friend and pop on down. Even a couple of people for half and hour is a help.
