People have been asking how we came to be ,so here is a quick summary of what we are .
The Club started above the Red Lion Pub in Litherland Liverpool in 1999 ,i had worked for the local youth service part time for a few years,but got totally peed of with where it was going ,which was no where. They didnt seem to realise at that time how sport was an ideal way for young people to feel they belong and express themselves in a positive way ,with no pressure to acheive,especialy after being in education all day ,it also keeps them healthy and teaches respect for themselves and their opponents.
The surrounding areas of where our club is situated is classed as a deprived area there is quite alot of unemployment, drug related crime and anti social behavior,plus gang related activities.We like to think that the time the youngsters are in our care , that it remains a place of hard work ,dicipline [ SELF ],FUN and also a safe haven for a couple of hours a night a few nights a week. there you have it Sid
