Players Bio: Carty is the club captain and has led the club through one of its most successful periods. Our leader can play with both feet, play in most positions and is deceptively quick. Steven is the perfect representative for the club in many areas.

He has battled back tremendously well from a serious health scare in 2009, taking it in his stride as comfortably as he does his football.

They say an average male speaks about 8000 words a day, the team has found that our competitive leader has to have the final word on just about every topic, clearly out-using his daily quota.

One who will debate until black and blue rather than admitting defeat,  which can be seen as an attribute but when you spend as many hours as us with him it is hard to take. Respect goes out to Steve’s wife Mary who has to do it 24/7.
