Top junior football club folds
Published: 00:00, 05 January 2007
ONE of the leading junior football clubs in Maidstone folded on New Year’s Day.
The Rose were formed in 1963 and established themselves as one of the major forces in the Maidstone & District League.
However, they decided to call it a day after finding it increasingly difficult to field 11 players.
League chairman David Izatt said "The Rose have been the top team in the league in recent years and everyone will be sorry to see such an established and successful side withdraw."
