The Swaffham Crier Online

Are the Tigers coming? No! They have arrived!

IT'S TAKEN A WHILE but at last we can say it - "The Tigers have landed!" Each time we thought we had made it another obstacle was put in our way, but Tigers are tenacious and we never give up! We now have a ground where we can develop and allow the children to play football.

A home for Tigers.

It does not stop there! Yes we will be playing football there at weekends but we wish the field to be what it should be - a recreation field; a field for the community. We have had talks with the school, they need a place for the children to play rounders, football, take part in athletics, somewhere for them to invite other schools to come for fun days. It's theirs to use. This is a community project. Yes we will benefit but we want the entire village to gain from this venture. Somewhere for the kids to play in safety, cubs to camp in in the summer, fly kites, just don't walk your dogs there!

Hopefully this will encourage more boys and girls from Swaffham Prior to take up football and where better to start than with Tigers!

We will need your help to do it though!

A big Thank You should go to Mr Hurrell for his patience and Steve Kent Phillips for all his help in getting us this far.

It's been a long road but it will be worth it in the end!
