Bradford City Women’s FC
Weekly Newsletter
6th July 2008
Welcome
Steve would like to welcome all new players to the club, and also welcome all existing players and Juniors stepping
up back for another season. Any queries players have please contact Steve at steve@bcwfc.co.uk or on his mobile 07962391222. Any players (new or existing) that still haven’t completed their personal information
forms or fitness assessments, it is important that you contact Steve ASAP to arrange a time for them to be completed.
3 Peaks
Its Official, senior players will be completing a sponsored 3 peaks walk in order to raise money for the club and
cancer research. Please get your sponsor sheet at training and start collecting ASAP. The Date was going to be Sunday 27th
July. But due to a double booking we have decided to wait a couple of weeks before announcing a new date. But please continue
to collect sponsor money. The more we raise now the less we have to worry about later in the season. Jess Pearson has offered
to take charge of the 3 peaks walk and will notify all concerned as soon as possible as and when things are sorted. If you
have any queries, please contact her direct. You can do this through steve@bcwfc.co.uk putting JP 3 peaks as the subject. Everyone is welcome to participate. If for
any reason you are unable to participate, please still collect sponsors on behalf of the participating girls, as we need to
raise as much money as possible for club funds and cancer research.
Club Clothing
Again a reminder to all players about club clothing. Firstly could all new and existing players WITHOUT rain jackets,
tracksuit bottoms, or training kit please (from trying on other players clothing) establish which sizes of each you require
and let Steve know ASAP so they can be ordered for the new season. Secondly anyone with rain jackets that need re-printing
please hand them in to Steve. Finally, players without polo tops or sweatshirts please establish sizes and either order from
the merchandise page on the website or contact Steve. (NB: the polo top and sweatshirt must be paid for by the player. All
other clothing is free issue but belongs to the club.) Thank you.
Club and League Registration
Can ALL players please fill in the club registration forms they recently received through the post and via email
and hand them in to Steve ASAP. Any players who have not received the forms please contact Steve so forms can be issued to
you.
1st team league registration forms have now
arrived. Players will be approached to complete these forms within the next 10 days. Not all senior players will be asked
to sign on! However, as and when the ‘A’ Team league registration forms arrive, all senior players will be expected
to sign on!
Sponsorship
A reminder to all senior players - Each player requires a player sponsor of £50 for the start of the new season,
and the sooner you get it the better. Remember you don’t have to get it from one person, you can break it down into
multiple sponsors just as long as the total comes to £50. Also can all players do their best to get sponsorship for match
days. A flyer has now been created that contains all the information you need for interested sponsors. If you require a flyer
or any information please contact Steve.
Training Days and Times
Thursdays, training will start at 6.30pm prompt as from next Thursday. Sundays, training will start at 10:30am prompt. All players MUST arrive 15 mins before training commences. As discussed at the open day we
are going to start an additional training date. This will start on Tuesday 15th July at Rawdon Meadows, at 6.30pm. Please try and attend as many training session as possible. The season is
just around the corner and we need to be ready !!!!!
