I will be taking names and money for our 21s game which hopefully start in 2-3 weeks,if we don't support this we will need to think of another way to raise funds so it's up to yourselves to make it work,I will be at training from 4-5.45 on Friday,thanks,James

Bonnyton Ball

Can you make sure you all have contacted Louisa re Tickets for the ball,tickets have been selling fast so make sure your tickets are booked

Sunday 29th September

This Sundays game is at the Grange and is a 11am kick off,please be there for no later than 10.45,could kids please where black and red strip,thanks,James

21s

We are trying to raise funds for the team and for the club as whole so I have came up with an idea(stolen)to make this happen,it needs everybody to be involved and to put in a wee bit of effort.

21s

In the Sunday Mail football results section the games are listed 1-150
In each game there will be a total number of goals
It costs £1 a week to enter and you are allocated a number,this number is yours forever
If your number is15 and the score is 2-0 you have 2 goals,the object is to reach 21 EXACTLY
If you are on 18 goals for example and you get 4 goals you are out the game until the next game starts
The £1 entry will be divided as follows 60p prize money,30p Bonnyton 2004s,10p Bonnyton FC
If we get 100 people playing this it will raise £1500 a year for us and £500 for the club
The competition could run for 3 weeks or 12weeks meaning a nice lift for somebody
I need each player to get 4/5 people to play this game,grans,papas,cousins,friends,parents workmates
Money must be paid in advance ,if you are not paid up to date and you win then you don't get paid
It is up to the parent of each child to collect in the money weekly or monthly

I will update the scores weekly on a Sunday and post them on the blog so you can see how your doing
I need a lot of co-operation to make this work,can you let me know what you think and if possible I would like it up and running by mid-October ,remember you can post on the blog.thanks,James

Training

Remember folks,no training tomorrow ,have a good weekend

Craig Clark

Last one tonight ,I promise!  I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Craig for his time ,effort and commitment over the last few years,we wouldn't be where we are today without you and Louisa of course,we wish you all the best and hope you will come and see us from time to time and see the kids progress.

Comments

You are free to leave a comment or any ideas here,we are all here for the same reason so the more we pull together the easier it will be for us all and the kids.We have a great group of parents in the 2004s so let's keep it like that.

Bonnyton Ball

The Bonnyton Ball will be held on Saturday 9th November at the Fenwick Hotel from 7.30, it costs £25 a head for a ticket, this includes a three course meal and a live band,it is for the parents and friends of all the Bonnyton teams but it it is being organised for the third year in a row by Louisa so I would appreciate it if the parents of our team could support it,thanks,James

Free week

Remember folks that this Friday there is no training and next Sunday there is no game due to the holiday weekend,the fixtures are all available on CAYFA website.

I am trying to organise a fundraising activity that involves a donation of £1 a week that involves great prize money but also helps raise funds for our age group and Bonnyton FC as well,watch this page during the week and please support it
