MATCHDAY VOLUNTEERS

VOLUNTEERS ARE THE HEARTBEAT OF NON LEAGUE FOOTBALL

NON LEAGUE FOOTBALL WOULD NOT SURVIVE WITHOUT VOLUNTEERS AND THE BTSS HAS AN EXTREMLEY RICH HISTORY OF CLUB VOLUNTEERING. THROUGHOUT THE YEARS THEY HAVE RECEIVED NOTABLE RECOGNITION AND ARE NOW PART OF CLUB FOLKLORE. FOR THAT REASON THE CLUB HAS ASKED IF ANY BTSS MEMBERS OR CLUB SUPPORTERS WOULD LIKE TO JOIN THE TEAM OF VOLUNTEERS AT THE CLUB AND ON MATCHDAYS. THERE ARE VARIOUS ROLES TO BE FILLED AND IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HELP OUT PLEASE CONTACT ROB OR STUART VIA THE OPTIONS ON OUR CONTACT PAGE, THANK YOU.

CATERING EXPANSION

FOOD OUTLET EXPANSION INVESTMENT AT GROUND

WE ARE DELIGHTED TO REPORT TO BTSS MEMBERS AND ALL BTFC SUPPORTERS THAT THE CLUB HAS INVESTED IN NEW EQUIPMENT AND A REFURBISHMENT FOR A CATERING EXPANSION TO THE LARGER UNIT AT THE BLUNTS WALL ROAD END, WHICH WILL MEAN MUCH QUICKER FOOD AND DRINK PROVISION ON MATCHDAYS WHICH HAS BEEN A LONG TERM PROBLEM AND A LOSS IN EXTRA VENUE FOR THE CLUB. WE ARE SURE THIS WILL BE WELCOMED BY EVERYONE AND WE HAVE RAISED THE ISSUE ON YOUR BEHALF OVER MANY SEASONS, AND WE ARE OPTIMISTIC THE CHANGES WILL SEE SUPPORTERS ENDORSING THIS INVESTMENT ON MATCHDAYS. THERE WILL ALSO BE EXTRA BAR OUTLETS, ONE BEING THE PREVIOUS FOOD OUTLET WHICH AGAIN IS GREAT NEWS.
