The Junior section of the Club has
grown steadily since the astro turf was laid at the original Louth Sports
Association ground on London Road, Louth, in the early 90's.
The Coaches, officials and volunteers
all have
CRB clearance and give up their time freely and create an
enthusiastic and enjoyable atmosphere whether it be at training or a
competition.
The Club encourages the junior league
players to help with the training sessions and also at the various
competitions. They are also encouraged to gain coaching and umpiring
qualifications whilst in their younger years, for example junior and Level 1
umpire status and the Level 1 Coaching qualification. At present the
Club has 4 Level 1 umpires under 18.
For several seasons the Club has participated in regular Under 11,Under
12,Under 13 and Under 14 mixed 7
a-side leagues, usually on a Sunday. The venues are spread around the
County.
There are also occasional Badgers fixtures -
Badgers are designed to encourage the step from smaller sided games to that
of 11 a -side. Teams include up to 3 adults who cannot be in either
circle, but are there to encourage and play make for the younger team
members.
