PARKING PLEA
All members and parents on club training nights (particularly on Tuesdays), must park in the Ellesmere Port Sports Village public car park, NOT the Staff Car Park behind the leisure centre, because cafe staff are attempting to leave the site.
Please also mark all athletic clothing, including drinks bottles, with your name to help identify lost property.

CONGRATULATIONS!
