Welcome to SAVE 's web pages, yet another new venture being taken on board by what we feel is a very progressive Senior and Youth Football Club. This is now our third season in the Spartan South Midlands League and only a fool would say it has been easy. In the closed season last year we had a change of manager welcoming Kevin ROWARK to the club. Again we found the squad light of experienced players and had a languid time through out, never leaving the lower section of the league. By March the club was in serious threat of relegation so the responsibility of manager passed to long serving player Paul ROBBINS. His hard endeavour together with the determination of the squad saw us survive by the skin of our teeth. In February 2000 SAVE made a few changes to the committee and introduced a full time bar steward/groundsman, Wayne MORRIS a player and member of the club since the early 80?s. Those decisions lead to a dramatic upturn in the clubs finances and we were able for the first time to plan ahead with some degree of certainty. The summer saw improvements to the pitch, alterations to the bar, resiting of the kitchen and redecoration of both changing rooms. However by far the most important change came in the form of new manager Andy LEESE and his staff of Tony MILLS and Mark STANDEN. All came from Potters Bar bringing with them a squad of young and enthusiastic players. The change in training and the numbers involved through July and August was very encouraging and with solid wins against Ryman sides Berkhampstead and Leyton Penant all are now looking forward to the new season with optimism. Our future plans include building a new clubhouse to be built adjacent to the west side of the pitch. Plans have been provisionally drawn up and negotiations have opened with Broxbourne Council. There is a long way to go and many obstacles to cross but we are hopeful this can be a Centre for youth and senior football.
