And the club is hoping to build on last seasons' success, with most of its teams in the hunt for promotion again.

The club field four men's and three ladies' sides on a Saturday. It also has a very strong junior section with teams ranging from under-10s to under-18s and this year will field a regular 'Badgers' team which includes juniors plus a maximum of four senior players.

It is a friendly, family club, with a very active social calendar and is always keen to recruit new members. All home games are played on the astro-turf at Droitwich Leisure Centre.

Training is on Wednesday evenings between 6.30pm and 7.30pm for juniors and 7.30pm and 8.30pm for seniors.
