It is with great sorrow we share the passing of our U10s Girls Coach Pete Tomkins💔
Pete was sadly diagnosed with a terminal illness during his time with us but that did not stop him from coaching & supporting the girls right up until his final days

Extremely disappointed and disheartened to find out yesterday that our brand new dugouts and goal posts at Parc Sanatorium have been vandalised, with the posts now needing replacing completely along with multiple panels that were smashed and damaged on dugouts. 1/2
Can't wait to see our club and community benefit from a much needed facility in the area with so much potential for all ages to benefit from 🙌
