Chaps a social, friendly game of Footy!

ALL abilities welcome and encouraged. This isn’t a competitive match or team but a chance to have a game in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

Places are limited to 12 per game. We play on a 5 a-side pitch.

It's a great opportunity for you to meet other guys like you, do a bit of exercise and talk and have a laugh.

#TogetherWeGrow

Join Adam at our allotment in Haxby!

Adam is our resident horticulture expert and he will be taking our little plot of heaven from roots to fruits. Come along and help us grow, create a space we can all take ownership of, and hopefully learn a thing or two along the way!

Please wear suitable clothing and sturdy footwear for the weather and for getting messy. Wear shorts and t-shirts at your own risk - scratches and stings are common in the pursuit of nature!

Bring along any snacks and water to keep you hydrated for the session and work at your own pace and ability level.

PARKING - There is very limited space to the front of the allotments so please aim to park on the street on either Station Road or Calf Close just round the corner.
BUS - You can also reach the allotment via the Number 1 bus and get off at the shopping centre/Memorial Hall and walk over the roundabout and down Station Road.
