Comets Sports Club was established in 1974. It offers boys and girls of all cultures, races and abilities the opportunity to participate in organised football from Under 6 to Senior Teams.
We are a Football Association Charter Standard Club. The award for which was presented at the Watford Football Club Vicarage Road Stadium in 2006. Comets are a growing club and has over 20 FA qualified and CRB checked volunteers, none of whom take any wage or payment for their efforts or time. We have approximately 225 players, who are all offered weekly coaching and match day games,
which in the main are on Sundays.
Our contribution is measured in the quality of our service to the community. We are proud to offer weekly coaching sessions to a disabled group of players and organise games with other Hertfordshire clubs for this enthusiastic group, who would otherwise not get the chance to experience team football and are now an integral part of our annual 6-a-side tournament, playing against other teams of similar ability.
Comets Sports Club has seen there is an ever increasing demand for girl’s football and still see it as an area for growth and way of increasing our ties with the local community. We now have an U9 girl’s team who actively play in the Hertfordshire Girls Football Partnership League, and as part of a long term plan we hope to bring other teams of girls through from scratch to senior levels over the coming years.
Comets now have an ongoing partnership with one of Hemel Hempstead's sports colleges. We have sole use of the Longdean School pitches and have worked with the school to improve these. We have already installed small sided pitches for 6-17 year olds, and plan to further develop facilities. In recent years we have partnered The Cavendish School to deliver one of Dacorum's largest junior sporting events, our summer 6-a-side Tournament. In 2008 we successfully transferred this to Longdean where we entertained around 5,000 people over the course of a weekend in June. Some nine counties provided the 183 teams that took part. Again in 2009, learning from our experiences in 2008, we provided one of our best ever tournaments at Longdean, and to date this is still the case.
We celebrate our success annually by gathering the whole club together for a presentation evening. The Annual event see’s all age groups come together to receive awards from the club for various Honours. This is also held at Longdean school.
