Members of a Bingley school football team are celebrating after netting a £1,320 award from the National Lottery.

Myrtle Park Juniors Football Club will be spending the cash on a new kit, equipment and special Football Association courses for coaches.

Club spokesman and under-sevens team manager Phil Allen said: "For a new up-and-coming club like ours this is a large sum of money."

The club was set up 18 months ago and the under-eights and under-sevens teams are spending their first seasons in the Keybury Alarms Youth League.

New players are welcome to join for the 2002/2003 season.

Training is every Saturday at 10am at Beckfoot School or Myrtle Park School field.
