The Under 14 section has traditionally been one of the Club's most successful age groups, we have 1 World 5 a side title, 2 National 5 a side titles and a host of League and Cup honours. This season the age group looks set to equal or even surpass previous success, as for the first time the Club has enough players to field two 11 a side teams in the Yorkshire Electricity Ladies League. (YELL)
Is this a first? We don't think that any other Club in England has achieved this - Let us know if you know different.

The A team are currently having a superb season in Division 1 of the Yorkshire Electricity League, under the guidance of Manager Ray Simms (left) and his assistant Andy Skeemer. (right) Ray became involved with the Club when his daughter Claire became too old to play in boys football. He was soon installed as the Under 12's manager where he guided the team to a League Runners up spot in 1997/98 and then a League and Cup double in 1998/99. This season he agreed to move into the 11 a side game and took over as Under 14 Manager from Shaun Reeve in July. Andy Skeemer stayed on as Assistant Manager to provide continuity from the previous season.

The B team meanwhile play in the Yorkshire Electricity League second division under the capable guidance of Paul Thompson and Paddy Carroll. The team consists entirely of Under 13's and is competing well in it's first competitive season. Paul is a Class 1 Referee currently on the list of the Vauxhall Conference League, whilst Paddy is a self employed driving instructor and par-time coach at the Centre of Excellence.

Both teams are sponsored by Macdonalds Restaurants in Chesterfield and play on Saturday mornings at Carr Vale United. The soponsorship with Macdonalds dates back to 1993 and since then they have become one of the Clubs' staunchest supporters.
