Teamers
Teamer.net,
the service we use to contact players about team events is now only allowing
each team to have 200 free texts per month. It is vital when you receive a
teamer that you respond straight away so as it does not cost your manager
money. Also if you have given your email address the teamer notification will
automatically go to your email because it is still free so please check your
emails as well. We ask all our members
for their cooperation in this so as to keep our running costs down.
Membership Forms
Membership

are asked for their assistance in getting this done in an orderly and efficient
manner and parents/guardians and players are asked to sign, complete and return

Many
thanks to all of those who have already completed and returned their forms,
your prompt co-operation is much appreciated.
