A lot of work goes into keeping the bowling green in good condition, even after the season ends.

A big thank you to Norton Bowling Club’s volunteers, who give so much of their time throughout the year, including helping to clear the soil plugs this week. Thanks also to our grounds team for all their hard work caring for the green and preparing it for seeding. It’s great to see everyone pulling together to look after the facilities. 👏

Congratulations Vicki and Jas Norton & Stockton Ancients FC Ladies

This evening saw two of our volunteers shortlisted at the Durham County FA Grassroots Football Awards.

Vicki Burton, who is head of women and girls’ football at Norton and manages the Under 14 Ambers, was chosen as the winner of the Lioness Award, for her commitment and dedication to growing the female game at our club.

Meanwhile, 16 year old Jas Salmon continued what has been an excellent 12 months of football for her personally, as she became runner-up in the Young Volunteer of the Year category. As well as captaining the Under 18s side, Jas plays for the ladies and coaches at our Wildcats group, showing what a true grassroots pathway looks like. Jas’ hard work has also recently secured her a coaching apprenticeship at Middlesbrough FC Foundation.

✨ A Huge Thank You to Our Wonderful Volunteers! ✨

We’d like to say a massive thank you to everyone who joined us for another fantastic volunteering day and helped us give our forest and the forest shelter some much-needed care and attention.

A big thank you to Action Asylum from Refugee Futures for their continued support, regular visits and commitment to helping us care for our site. We really appreciate you coming back time and time again, working incredibly hard and helping us with so many different jobs.

A huge thank you also goes to M&S Bank for joining us and working so hard with sprucing up our picnic benches, planters and bird hide.

Today everyone helped us:
✅ Clear away chopped trees
✅ Clean down and repaint our picnic benches
✅ Weeding and painting the bird hide
✅ Identify trees that were lost during the drought, helping us plan for future replanting
✅ Weeding and leaf removal of the forest shelter pathway
✅ Repainting the planters

It was a brilliant day of teamwork, and the difference you have all made is fantastic to see. Thank you to both teams for giving your time and helping us look after our grounds.
