Clanfield 85 “We’ve sponsored the club since they first started out; they were associated with another club and as they were about to disband we asked Clanfield if we could become part of their set up. Sunday 16th June 2019 was the first official day associated with the club and I coach the U10s that I brought from the other club. My son Flynn plays as a winger and is quick and a good passer. All I want to do as a coach is help the players to improve as much as possible and show them that playing football can always remain enjoyable. Hopefully all the lads will keep developing and progress to the seniors. I think the seniors will do well thanks to the drive the management has. It is very important to get the whole community involved and feeling part of the club. I’d just like to say thank you for making us feel so welcomed and wish everyone involved good luck for the future.” John McLaughin Mclaughlin Electrical Ltd We carry out all types of electrical work including. • Domestic installations • Commercial installations • Landlords certificates • Electrical installation condition reports • Fault finding. • Rewires • Pat testing • No job is to big or to small.

We are a Community club and we are looking for our boys team to buy into becoming part of the club and feel like they have a say and can help the football and social side grow. “The biggest challenge for us is the running costs and also we need to build new changing rooms, more hard standing and some more seats to reach the next level. Also, we would love to have more volunteers which is the biggest crisis in non-league football. Our ambitions over the next five years are to achieve promotion to step 5 and then to establish ourselves there and grow the youth section. Off the field we will be looking to add new changing rooms and more pitches.” www.footballfocusmag.com 35
