Keeping the club on a sound financial footing despite the long tail impact from Covid-19. At times, we were prevented from operating due to government impositions and FA restrictions.
The growth of players attending our Taunton Juniors’ sessions, from a position of reducing numbers at the time our former Head Coach departed. The holiday camps we have run have also been successful, with attendance returning to near target levels. A strong Juniors’ section is recognised to be essential for our long term viability, as it will feed players into our training and match squads for U11 – U18.
Continuation of the collaboration with Bishops Lydeard FC. In excess of 15 of our members have made the transition into adult football, and some are regulars in their first team.
Development of an association with Queen’s College in Taunton, for use of their facilities alongside the other locations where we play matches and provide training sessions. Queen’s College is a co-educational independent school which has a history of supporting local clubs and societies.
