The people
A manager, a secretary and a handful of volunteers, none of them paid and all of them slightly tired.
If you want a game, ask for Huw. If you want anything else, ask for Menna.
First-team manager
Huw played at centre half for the club through the 1990s, then went into coaching when his knees gave out. He has been manager for five seasons, and he works for the water board.
He will not take a player who will not train, however good, and he has turned down several who would have kept us higher up the table. Ask him about it at your own risk.
Club secretary
Menna has been secretary for nineteen years, and she does the registrations, the fixtures, the licence and the insurance, along with any emergencies. She will answer the phone at most hours, and she can usually find you a date for the clubhouse.
A retired head of department from Pontypridd, she has never fully forgiven referees as a group.
Under-18s
We take players from 16. Anyone who works with under-18s holds an enhanced DBS check and has taken the safeguarding course, and there is a named welfare contact: Menna, on 07700 900 177. On this demonstration site that wording is a placeholder a real club would replace.
Saturday, Glan Taf Ground, a five-minute walk from Taffs Well station. Under-16s free with an adult. The clubhouse is open after the game, and you do not need to know anybody.
