What are Club Nights?

Club Nights are regular events run by the club and volunteers in which we can all connect and engage further with our players, parents, supporters and teams.

Our Club Nights are junior focused - it is "all about them!".  We celebrate and reward "Players of the Day" and other achievements and run fun activities, games and challenges for the children.  There's usually a raffle and other prizes available.

A very reasonably priced bar, food and lolly table is available, and all contributions and profits at these events go towards keeping our community club running.

Where?

Parklands United Sports Club, 77 Queenspark Drive

When? 

4PM to 6:30PM+, select Saturdays in the season

Who?

All members - players and their parents are encouraged to attend, including Smash Play.

What Is A Host Team?

Host Teams will be introduced Player by Player to the club so we can get to know each member. 

Host Teams may also help with activities and duties and we encourage a special effort to attend on your Host Team's night.
