Let's rewind to Bounds week...

We would like to extend the BIGGEST of thank yous to each and every person who put their spare change in our buckets.

We had help from our committee youngins, family members and of course our local young footballers. All going around rattling their buckets, selling our brochures and hyping the raffle.

The buckets brought in a HUGE £554.87p 🫶👏

The brochures brought in another £95 🫶👏

We also ran our first ever bounds week 50/50 raffle which raised £304 for us and the winner Sandra Armstrong also receiving £304 🍾🎉

What a blooming huge success, and this is all down to the town of Berwick!

So once again THANK YOU!!

Keep an eye out to see what the principals and mascot are up to each week. While the rest of us quietly start prepping for next year.

Traditions are still upheld, on the 1st of May our principals walked down and tapped the bridge.

In 2027 this will be done on horse back due to Bounds day being on the traditional 1st of May.
