A message from Gillian Drinkwater, Secretary and Trustee of Crosspool and District Youth Sports Trust (CDYST):
CDYST wishes to thank the Henry Boot Community First Endowment Fund for South Yorkshire for its generous grant in December 2015.
This has allowed the trustees to buy more orange barrier netting, new shepherd’s crook fencing pins and some keep off the grass signs. These are used every spring when we close the Coldwell Lane under 11s pitches for essential summer maintenance – the expensive hollow-tining, reseeding, weedkiller spraying and fertilizer spreading – and our old materials were getting very shabby.
The grant was obtained with the kind assistance of the South Yorkshire Community Foundation.
Ranmoor Badminton Club is looking for new recruits. They meet Fridays at 7pm on at Tapton School sports hall.
