Tesco and Sainsbury's vouchers

As those who attend the Pavilion regularly will know, we have a box where you can put your Active Kids Sainsbury's vouchers. We are now collecting Tesco vouchers as well. Please put them in the same box and we will sort them out.

Thanks for your co-operation and we hope to add to our equipment as a result this year.

Club Shirts

There are still some club shirts for sale (sizes S,M,L,XL). These are lightweight navy shirts with the name of the club in white, and cost £5. Without the subsidy from a sponsor, these would cost £20, so snap one up whilst there are still some left!
