Club Update
We would like to thank everyone who has been in contact with the club over the past couple of weeks for their support. As ever, our primary concern is for the safety and well-being of our players, staff, supporters, sponsors, and our wider community. We would urge everyone to follow all of the advice from the government and other relevant authorities. We would also like to thank our players and staff for their professionalism over this period, during what has been a difficult time for all of us. The club has been inundated with enquiries from people seeking to offer support, and work has been ongoing behind the scenes to give people as many different avenues as possible to do just that. Below, you will find a comprehensive summary of all activities currently ongoing at the club. We also have a few more plans in the pipeline so be sure to follow us on social media for all the latest news and events.
