Longford Park Junior Football Club
Longford Park Junior Football Club was established in September 2010 with the aim of providing children in the Chorlton, Old Trafford and Sale area access to football coaching and facilities to help improve their overall health, confidence and skill through the enjoyment of sport. In the years since, the club has grown to having 7 established teams ranging from age 6 to 12.
In April 2016 Longford Park JFC started a new initiative to encourage more girls to take up football and the response has been overwhelmingly positive. The number of girls attending our weekly training sessions has increased week on week, with over 30 girls now attending. In June, only 2 months after beginning training, the girls competed in and won their first tournament, and we now have 2 teams entering in to leagues this season.

An integral part of the Withington community for over 100 years, essential for the heath and well being of local people. The takeover of Withington Baths by the Love Withington Baths community group is now complete, on 20th June 2015 Withington Baths re-opened its doors a social enterprise. We believe that this small local pool, specialist in nature and design, with an enhanced gym and development of other spaces within the large Edwardian building can be an asset to Withington and wider area for many years to come, via the community-run facility scheme.

A truly welcome development recently has been the sight of tennis being played once more at Fletcher Moss. The return of tennis to the courts has been largely down to the initiative and determination of local tennis enthusiasts Chris and Suzy Keaney. Chris and Suzy are both qualified coaches and, like so many local people, have been saddened to see the lack of maintenance of the courts result in them becoming virtually unplayable.
But, aided by the Friends’ group, they have managed to get the council to mark out and erect posts and nets on the shale courts, and it is now heartening to see people playing and enjoying tennis once again. Chris and Suzy have run sessions on Saturday afternoons from 2.00-4.00pm for anyone who wants to play, whatever their age or ability.
At present the shale courts are having a rest until early April, as use in the winter can damage them. However the Tennis group are holding sessions on the hard courts at MMU while the shale courts are out of action; there is an over-50s group on Thursday afternoons.
To further encourage and promote tennis a ‘Fletcher Moss Community Tennis’ group has recently been formed; if you want to know more about the group please contact Chris Keaney, Chair of FMC Tennis (christopher-keaney@sky.com)

The club was formed in summer 1990, being the brainchild of David Brown, John Harrison, David Law, and Bill Whitten under the name North Trafford, sharing Shawe View with Trafford Borough Rugby League Club. After initially being denied entrance, a late withdrawal resulted in the club being invited to join Division 2 of the Mid-Cheshire League for 1990/91 season.
The first game at competitive level versus Macclesfield College was won 3-1,leading to a finish in second place, and promotion to Division One. As a bonus the club obtained sole tenancy of Shawe View via a 30 year lease, and substantial ground improvements were undertaken
