Thirty years ago this month, Brockham Badgers FC was founded, with 50 boys playing in 3 teams.
Today we have 300 boys and girls and 20 teams! We have engaged fully qualified and professional coaches for the first time, run several events throughout the season and host one of the biggest football tournaments in the south of England.
At the same time, we are determined to preserve our community ethos, providing regular sport for as many boys and girls who want it, whatever their ability. We also have one of the lowest annual membership fees of any youth football club in Surrey and Sussex.
To sustain all this, in the way we would all like, now requires a substantial restructuring of the club’s organisation. We have proposals that will affect every age group, every team and every parent.
Please come and join us at the Annual General Meeting, to find out what is being proposed.
All managers, coaches and parents of players are urged to come along. Simply listen – or have a say. If you know other parents in your age group, please get them to come along as well.
After 30 years of growth, help us sustain the future of Brockham Badgers FC for our children – and the generations to come.
I very much hope to see you there.
