It has been a wonderful winter of training under our new lights at the Eternit Sports and Social Club in Meldreth. The children have had some fantastic sessions and some excellent mini inter-club tournaments. It is great that we are now getting more daylight and that extra 30 minutes training.

The under sevens have come on leaps and bounds in their league, in which they have been playing outside of the local area since Christmas. Though coaches thought that this may have been a hard task for them it seems that they have thrived; last week winning 6-1 and playing some very, very good football. The under thirteens 19 Squadron continue to do very well too and are, at the time of writing, top in Division Two. All of the children are enjoying seeing their results and league tables published. These children have worked hard, coming from behind on a number of occasions to beat strong opposition. They show good camaraderie and determination, while really loving their footie. All of the teams are looking forward to the Easter Fundraising Party which will be held at the Eternit Club on Sunday 10th of April. There will be egg hunts, pin the tail on the rabbit, egg and spoon races, etc for our younger ones and pool and darts for the older children. Our Club would like to say a huge ‘thank you’ to all of the local businesses that have supported the raffle and sponsored Spitfires' teams; without your generosity, there would be no grass roots football. If anyone would like their children to join Shepreth Spitfires Football Club please contact us via our website, www.sheprethspitfires.co.uk or call Lucy and Sean on 07510 175370.
