Pre-Season Off To A Great Start:

We're well underway with our pre-season campaign - many teams rest for the summer but we think that our friendly fixtures at this time of year are a great way to keep in shape and welcome new players to the squad. So far, we've won seven out of nine fixtures in a long line of games before the new season begins, and we are always looking to increase our great squad, so come down and have a go - what's the worst that could happen?!

Beeston.Biz Finish 5th In The League:

After a tough season with so many new players coming in and so many injuries, together with an unbelievably bad winter - the weather causing an unplanned break of five consecutive weeks without a fixture being played - we finished our league season in 5th place. This is an improvement on the previous year when we were placed 7th at the end of the year. We now look forward to a relaxed and sunny summer pre-season with a number of friendly matches already organised.

Summer Football Training - Tuesday Evenings

For the whole of the Spring and Summer we will be training on grass pitches at various venues throughout the South Nottinghamshire area. Please join the facebook group or contact - - for more details.

Training takes place on Tuesday nights and sometimes on Thursday nights as well, with the emphasis on improving fitness, enjoying playing football and welcoming newcomers. New players are especially welcome between now and the end of August and we will be playing at least fifteen pre-season friendly matches during the summer giving every squad member a guaranteed chance to play 11-a-side football regardless of their ability.

Nottingham Football Teams - James Passing The Ball

Once or twice per week we have our very popular training sessions on a grass pitch in Nottingham. The cost is only 3 pounds per player and sessions typically start with a 'glorious run' around the grounds followed by drills and a match to finish.

Nottingham Football Teams - James, Shaun, Oli, Ant and Ollie

During a typical training session, the first half an hour will include a light jog around the playing fields, then some stretches and team building exercises, ensuring that players are properly warmed up and ready to play football. Then we normally play some three touch football and a 'proper match' to finish the session. Shinpads and a good pair of astro trainers will be required.

Each Player Must Bring £3 Subs And Their Own Kit To Training, Including Shin Pads

Although we nearly always have a couple of pairs of spare socks and shinpads with us, we ask that all football players bring their own kit if at all possible (or let us know in advance if you need to borrow some kit). So when you come to training, please bring the following with you:

Nottingham Football Teams - Russ, Oli and Tom
  • Shin Pads, Socks and Shorts or tracksuit trousers
  • Training top and/or suitable football shirt / t-shirt
  • Good pair of trainers suitable for an artificial playing surface*
  • A pair of football boots with moulded studs (recommended for summer) or screw-in studs
  • £3 per player in correct change in coins
  • Water bottle or drink (we normally take water bottles but not always)

*A pair of football trainers with good grip can usually be bought at well known local sports retailers for between 10 and 20 pounds. When we are warming up, trainers are worn by most players as they are easier to jog in than football boots. Obviously the weather will affect what sort of trainers or boots will be best so please use your own judgement and come to training well prepared!

Nottingham Football Teams - Nick With A Touch Of Genius

We provide training equipment such as marker cones, whistles, bibs, posts, balls and first aid kit. All players should note that the club does not have extensive insurance cover for accident or injury, so you should have your own individual insurance, particularly if you have a job that you could no longer do after being injured playing football.

Our summer training will be at a number of exclusive venues in Nottingham. Start time will be 6.30pm and players are welcome to arrive at any time before it gets dark! Sessions will cost only £3 per player and the football will be played on a grass pitch (see our Facebook Group page or a committee member for details).

Lifts for players who don't drive are arranged using our Facebook Group page, or by email. Lifts from various points are often available. A number of lads get the bus from town (Nottingham city centre) and some of the others bike it there.

You'll need to bring a pair of football boots, some trainers (for jogging in!) as well, a drink, your subs (or borrow from another player) and of course your own shinpads, shorts and socks.
