Currently we have more than 650 players (boys, girls and disability) registered in over 50 teams with an age range of 8 - 18 years (up to 25 years for Disability teams).  The Management Committee of Managers, Assistants and 10 Officers give their time free. We do employ and develop a number of full time apprentice coaches to help us achieve our aims. Currently we have 5 Apprentices. We try only to cover our costs each season, charging players registration fee to cover insurance’s at the same time we try to make the cost of playing for our club as reasonable as possible for parents/guardians.

Each team  costs between £1500 and £2000 per year to run which includes kit, pitches, equipment, referees and first aid etc. Additional money is raised by the Officers, Management, Players and Parents by fund-raising, sponsorship etc.

Each team is provided with match kit, this can come from sponsorship, grant applications, parents or club funds, if a team grows out of a kit and it is still in good condition it can be passed down to another team. Once it reaches a certain age it is shipped out for use in Africa. The funds needed to run a club of our size requires in excess of £100,000 per year to operate,  If you can help with donations or sponsorship please contact David Wray on 01727 858577 or Email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

We also provided coaching, skill practice and football fun for, at the last count, 150 youngsters under 9.  This is provided every Saturday and during school holidays.  We now ask the parents if they could pay us an annual fee of £25 purely to cover the cost of insurance and field maintenance.  The Club as a whole are insured for in excess of £1,000,000. Club Membership includes all the Officers, Managers, Coaches, Players, all the Non-Players (Supporters, Parents etc.)

The club also supports Schools within the St Albans area by promoting School-Club links and providing coaching courses and experience for sixth formers training for their Coaching Badges.

The Disability Section have plans to replicate the School-Club coaching experience throughout their section and with Special Olympics.

Towards the end of each season we encourage teams "to tour" using our links with Europe, America and Africa.
