Training

Training for the forthcoming season begins on Thursday 9th July, starting promptly at 6.00pm on the Village Green.

Pre-season

Training will run twice a week, on every Tuesday and Thursday up to the start of the season.

This seasons training sessions will again focus mainly on fitness and basic balls skills, ensuring that we are first to the ball and there after we Keep It Yellow.

Please Note:
Ensure you bring to every session football boots/trainers, running shoes and plenty of water/fluids.

Training will start promptly on time each week and for anyone late then individual & team penalties will apply (so we suggest you arrive in plenty of time to have a chat and a kick about prior to starting).

A register will be taken at each session to record attendance for purposes for judging individuals commitment to the training & fitness, for the collection of subs (which are £2 per week for training) and for fines.

A fitness stat sheet will be developed and posted on the website to record individual’s weekly results.

Pre-Season is about you getting fit! So the challenge is personal, one of improving week on week.

The location of a training session may vary, so listen out each week and watch the Website.

Our aim for pre-season is to have fun and get fit. Best of luck.

Friendly Games:

These will be organized for August and will be posted on the website as soon as they are all confirmed.

During the Season:

From September training reverts back to one session a week on Wednesday nights and starting the 16th September, training also transfers to Chichester College all weather pitch from 6.30pm to 8pm.
We then remain at the college until the end of March 09 after which we revert back to Lavant.

New Players Welcome:

We currently run two sides in the local West Sussex League and are always on the outlook to strengthen both sides. So if you are interested then please come along and take part in one of our pre-season sessions.

If you are unable to attend but are still interested in joining the club then contact either David Parker or Cliff Massey on 01243 527313 for more information.

Thanks to everyone who helped out at this year’s Village Fete

After a second round of serious texting from Daryl we got a really good turn out from both the Saturday and Sunday team’s for this years fete.

A big Thank You to all those that turned up on the day. It is important we support the village in the annual fete, as they support the football team throughout the Season.

On the day Yax’s seriously outstanding performance in goal was worth mentioning, which should perhaps slightly worry the current crop of Lavant keepers for the forthcoming season.
