Our Under 9's have two Squads, going by the names of BJFF Blades and BJFF Predators, with both squads taking part in the Poulton & District Primary League, the Blades in Division 1A and the Predators in Division 1B.
Bispham Junior Football Federation Under 11's Predators, a new squad this season pulled together to allow players to continue playing football and offer more time on the pitch than at their previous clubs, is developing fast, and is already highly competitive at this early stage of their development. With 2 hard-fought draws and a couple of narrow defeats in our opening 7 games in the Pizza division, we are hoping for the first 3 point haul during November.
Our Under 12's are sitting 4th in the Under 12's Pizza Division after our opening 4 games saw 3 victories and 1 This age-group sees the first competitive football for our defeat for a 9 point haul. Our Under 13's are taking the youngsters, with football at Under 8's and below purely league by storm....... having been "wooden-spoonists" developmental (non-competitive).

I became interested in becoming an Aesthetics practitioner after having a treatment myself. As a qualified and experienced nurse of many years I wanted to expand my role and try something a bit different. I have now been an Aesthetics practitioner for nearly 4 years and love the job and think the treatments are great. The main treatments I offer are Botox, which softens fine lines, ideal for around the eyes and forehead. Dermal Fillers – Using Restylane, Restores volume and smoothes lines, perfect for those nose to mouth areas (as well as many other areas) which can become more pronounced as we age. Derma Roller Therapy- using a micro needling technique which uses the skins natural healing process to stimulate collogen production giving a fresher look. It produces a similar effect to Skin peels but with virtually no down time. A very popular treatment with amazing results. I want clients to feel confident with the treatments so am happy to offer free consultations with no obligation, with either clinic or home visits. Before the treatment a consent form and medical checklist is completed which will identify any relevant Health concerns which can then be discussed appropriately before treatment is carried out. Why age gracefully when their is so much we can do without going under the knife !!
