Our players generally live in and around the Hornchurch, Gidea Park and Harold Wood area in the London Borough of Havering but we also attract players from outside of this area due to the success of our teams and players being signed up to professional academies.

​

This season our teams will play in the Echo and Brentwood leagues and will be placed in a division that best matches the ability levels of the boys and girls to improve their understanding and development.    In addition to this we would also enter a number of tournaments (2-5 per season) where there would be up to 50 teams present..  At these tournaments, including our own Byron tournament, on average we play about 5-6 games.
