John first became involved with Welton FC when his son began playing for the club at 7 years of age. From this starting point in 1996 he helped manage & coach the then Under 8 team ultimately taking them through to Under 16. He was a supportive parent, helping with the various functions that go with operating a team, whether putting up nets, providing transport, acting as linesman or referee. He is still seen on the sidelines supporting his son who now plays for one of the adult men's teams He has always supported fundraising and celebration events away from the field of play, been an advocate of the Club wherever he goes and been instrumental in securing significant sponsorship and affinity schemes that have benefited the Club and those that play for it. John became club chairman in 2002 at a time when there were only 11 teams. Under his leadership and enthusiasm the Club grew to 21 teams, now offering football opportunities from age 6 through to adult and has grown to become one of the largest in the local area with more than 200 registered players, an achievement he is justly proud of. His stewardship has seen a financially stable, family friendly club achieve firstly Charter Standard Club status and more recently, CS Development Club accreditation. His inspiration and wisdom will continue to influence the Club and those around him. Terry Peachman 01673 861442 peachman@tiscali.co.uk Welton Football Club    Happy New Year to all from Welton FC.

Well with your help this could be done.  Dunholme Parish Council are looking for a small committee of people to reopen and run the Dunholme Tennis Club again. 
They have spent a lot of money on the new sports pavilion and making the area look nice, so the surroundings you can play in are now much better.
