Chair Peter Steward reflected on a season which had seen the Under-14s win their league. There had also been good performances from a number of the club's other teams and the club had an outstanding disciplinary record.

H e outlined meetings that had taken place during the year to establish a permanent home for the club. These will carry on over the coming season and include searching for a piece of land in the village and also a partnership with Easton College.

The club's annual presentation evening had attracted 700 people and once again been held at Carrow Road. It is generally felt in the club that the evening has become too big and the club will look into splitting it into two.
