End of holidays treat for kids

The club has two big fixtures coming up this week, marking the end of the holiday season, and a busy September. Currently top of the league and playing exciting football, we are looking to see even bigger crowds than last year.

First comes the big derby game with Flixton on Wednesday, then our first ever clash with the pitmen at Atherton Collieries on September 2nd.

As a special end of holiday treat we are also offering under 18s free entry for the Atherton fixture. The match is on a day when there will be no Premiership action, so we expect a big turnout. If you can help promote this game please download and print copies of the flyer for distribution wherever you think fit. Update: Posters are now available for the Atherton Collieries game, download a colour one from here and black and white from here.

The Atherton match will be accompanied by new under 18s competitions to find the best young artists amongst our supporters (see below).
