Supporting The Teams
As we enter the last few weeks of the season and excitement levels may rise, a quick reminder to support our teams in the right way, positive encouragement, leave the coaching to the coaches and remember you are representing Scotton Scorchers. We are proud of your support.

On The Pitch - In the Harrogate and District Leagues
Congratulations to the U11 girls, Harrogate and District Champions. Well done to our U12 boys who in their first season in ‘the big league’ are promoted to the A division, and a special mention to our U18’s who in what may be their last ever game for us are through to the Cup Final, leading them out is captain Joel Ainsley who started with the Scorchers U8’s 10 years ago!!!! 

Fundraising and Events Update - Thanks to everyone who helped with bag packing we raised £384 for the club.

Children’s Parties - If you would like to book the Pavilion for your child’s football party (From just £25) please e mail mikeandjanec@googlemail.com to get more details.

The Scorchers AGM
The AGM takes place at the Borough Bailiff (Knaresborough High Street) (in the back room) on Wednesday 24th April at 7.30pm.
Please come along to this meeting and have a say in how your club is run. In the last 10 years we have spent over £100,000 of YOUR MONEY!!!!! Come and help us plan how we spend the next £100,000!!! There will be no commitment required from you, come and have your say or simply listen in, it’s your club so help the committee make the right decisions.
Just some examples of things coming up:
Do we raise subscriptions or continue fundraising
Do we develop further pitches at Percy Field, or remain as we are
Do we make ambitious plans to develop 4G pitches
Do we have the motivation and support of our members
