the hearts of the future, all being done in an
encouraging and
supporting environment.

St Peter's Football
Club (juniors) was started in 1996 and began with only a handful of children
attending the weekly training sessions. This continued and grew slowly until
in 2000 we were able to form a team. In the season 2002/2003, thanks to the
support of the parents we were able to run teams at under 8, under 10 and
under 12. During these years as well as running the teams we have continued
to provide weekly training sessions. Today we have approx. 160 children
attending on a weekly basis and now have an adult team.
