Meet the squads
From five-year-olds learning to stop a ball with their feet to a first team chasing the league title. Same shirt, same rules, same tea hut.
Saturdays · 3pm
First XI
Second in Division One and still in the County Senior Cup. A young side built on the academy: seven of this season's starters came through our under-16s.
Sundays · 2pm
Rovers Women
Founded in 2009 by six mums who wanted a game, now County Cup quarter-finalists. New players of every level welcome, from first-timers to returners.

The Reserves
Back from injury, back from university, or back after twenty years off: the Reserves are where everyone gets minutes. Over-35s very welcome.
Academy · Under-7s to under-16s
Nine age groups, one rule
Everyone plays at least half of every match. Boys and girls train together up to under-11s; from under-12s there is a girls' team in each age group.
