Kilcock Celtic Football Club aims to provide a happy and safe environment where children of all abilities can learn to play and love football.
We undertake to treat each child equally and to encourage fair play, team spirit and friendship.
Football is a competitive sport but our Club training sessions are open to all children regardless of their ability, gender, colour, creed or religion.
We pledge to deal with any complaints or problems speedily and will try our best to resolve all situations, but the interest of our junior members will be foremost in our minds.
We ask for all adults involved with the Club as Managers, Coaches, Parents or Committee Members to do their bit to encourage fair play as well as commitment.
