It’s a safe environment where everyone is valued, respected and encouraged. We’re proud of our FA Charter Standard Club Award. And we’re committed to the FA’s Respect Initiative. Since 1971, we’ve worked with local businesses, schools and parents to build a club we can be proud of. See the Club Rules & Club Handbook. All our volunteers, managers, coaches and referees are CRB checked. We’re a trusted part of the local community. So whether you want to volunteer or are looking for a team that’s right for your child, you’ll find Cougars has a lot to offer.
In 2011, Cougars celebrated their 40 Year Anniversary, and in 2012 a Cougars team won the Hertfordshire County Cup Final, a first for the Club. And the following year, they did it again and won the 2013 County Cup Final. Well done from everyone at the Club.

Cougars U7s Blues vs Hitchin Town Warriors, Saturday 23rd March, Away
Whay, Sampson, Loxton, Williamson, Tidy, Walker, Reeve, Deane
Spring is here. Beautiful day for a game on a cracking 3g surface against a strong Hitchin side.
A strong first quarter with the Blues in action straight away. Reeve fired one narrowly wide before a great Loxton tackle put Whay through but he hit his shot wide. Loxton unlucky after battling past three but seeing his shot saved. At the other end Walker had to be alert for the quick counters - three quickfire saves. Tidy twice denied after striding up from the back.
Whay had the ball in the net seconds into the second quarter - the keeper was nowhere.... literally.... as they had kicked off without one. Start again.
Deane was busy early - two diving saves to deny Hitchin. A real midfield battle with Williamson, Sampson and Whay putting in some big tackles. Chances were scarce with Sampson firing one wide.
Into the third. Williamson on a great run, past two and drawing a fine save. Whay agonisingly put a shot inches past the post as the Blues pressed. Reeve was called into action in goal with a great save and Walker was flying into the tackles.
Final quarter. Loxton in goal but well protected by Walker. It was from a crunching Walker tackle that Sampson was able to stride forward and slip a left foot shot under the keeper. Sampson got his second, robbing the defender and slotting home just before the final whistle.
Well played both teams.
Once again, a local business has stepped up to support the next generation of Cougars.
Our U6s who will begin playing official games from September are proudly sporting kits provided by attend2IT as they start to have a few friendlies to get ready.
A big thank you from a very proud group of young players.
