Thirsty work, being treasurer
We sometimes play 'friendlies' outside the league. We have hosted matches in Buxton - playing against various teams. We've even played against a Brazilian team in a six-a-side tournament at Buxton Community School. A team made up of youngsters and a few of us 'oldies' went to Scotland to play against a team from an Edinburgh Baptist Church.
Praying before the match
Our aim in these events is not to 'win at all costs', but to have a good time while behaving in a manner of which Jesus would approve - both on and off the pitch.
Some say we have an unfair advantage
because our goalie can levitate!
As well as members (and former members) of our own church, the team features players from New Life Christian Fellowship and Church in the Peak. The relationships forged serve to deepen inter-church understanding. We hope to involve people from most local churches in the future.
Manager, Andy Tooze
We aim to extend our footballing horizons even further. As in most areas of life there is a number of possible ways forward. Our desire is to stay close to God so that we can move forward in the way He wants. Please pray that we will be able to do this, as well as thanking Him for what has already been achieved through our footballing activities.
Oh, the pain of being a manager!
