It is with deep regret that Forres Area Soccer 7’s remain unable to offer football activities to the youngsters of Forres and surrounding areas. The health and well-being of our players, spectators and last but not least volunteers is of paramount importance and it is essential that we follow the guidance as laid down by the relevant authorities.
Further to the announcements previously made by the SYFA regarding matches/training and the announcement by the Scottish Government regarding school closures, Forres Area Soccer 7’s appear to be ‘out of action’ certainly for the foreseeable future. We will continue to monitor updates released by the authorities and we will endeavour to update you all on a regular basis and have our club up and running again as soon as possible, bigger and better than ever.
As you are probably aware, Forres Area Soccer 7’s is a registered charity in Scotland and as such operates entirely on annual player memberships, local sponsorship and local donations. With this is mind, the board at Forres Area Soccer 7’s always attempt to keep the club as community orientated as possible; the club would like to remind the community that we are still here and willing to help those in need if we can. If you do need assistance and you think we may be able to help please do not hesitate to contact us, we will help where we can.
I’m sure you all will agree that this is going to be a difficult period for us all for a variety of reasons including financial difficulty for some. Although this will also be an extremely financially testing time for Forres Area Soccer 7’s, the board have decided to offer full refunds to those of you that need or wish this. If you wish to request a refund, please do not hesitate in contacting the club to arrange this.
The board at Soccer 7’s wish to thank you all for your continued support, both financially and for helping us make Forres Area Soccer 7’s the fantastic club that it is.
We look forward to seeing you soon.
Soccer 7s will be back
Paul Lynch
Chairman
