Mens debuts

With the Ladies section having given debuts to an almost endless stream of juniors since September, we’ve had to wait almost until the end of the season to see some of the Kobras make the big step up to senior level in the men’s section.  With a long season taking its toll on ageing limbs, … Read more

Kobras head for international duty

Also heading off for international duty over Easter are two ex-Kobras who are now playing for the adult sections of the club.

Thanks Katie

The Ladies seconds were short of a full team for today, so many thanks are due to the Kobras who stepped into the breach, particularly to Katie Leslie, who was making her debut at this level. That the Kinross team dominated the game and came away with a 2-nil victory over Grove Menzieshill says a lot … Read more

Another sponsor for the ladies section

The ladies section has now signed up a second sponsor in the shape of Gowrie Contracts Ltd.  This is a three-year deal at silver level, which means that Gowrie’s logo will appear on the back of the ladies strips from the start of next season.
