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 Letchworth Garden City Eagles, Saturday 16th March, Away
Deane, Loxton, Williamson, Whay, Tidy, Sampson, Walker, Reeve
Windy. Very windy.
A tough match over in Letchworth for a very early kick off. Uphill in the first quarter and against the wind but the Blues were in to the action quickly. Loxton was lively up front but denied by the keeper, Reeve was combative through the middle, Walker an immovable force at the back and Sampson unlucky with one effort that flew over the bar. Deane kept it tidy in goal.
Into the second quarter and Williamson twice going close - one inches wide, one a great save. Whay in goal made a crucial save before Reeve barrelled forward from half way, looked up and struck a crisp shot into the bottom left corner! Tidy was on and a steadying influence at the back with the occasional lung busting run forward. Just before half time Williamson got a goal, tucking it away after great work from Sampson.
The third quarter started cagey with the Blues now having the wind and slope advantage. Sampson scored a wonder goal, skipping down the wing, past two and finishing really well. Loxton had to make a couple saves and Deane was in midfield and getting the tackles in.
Final quarter and Deane won and converted a penalty - excellently taken. A whole hearted team performance as the team battled to the end. Williamson, Whay and Tidy all with chances as the game closed out.
Well played both teams in tough conditions.
