Since their beginning the Pathfinders have come a long way. All the teams play in the British Youth American Football Association (BYAFA) league. The Junior team were outstanding in their first season, and came second in the National Championships, capping off along with winning the English festival of Football Championship and both the NFL and NFL Europe championship Trophies.
The Youth Team won the NFL Kick off trophy and won the runners up trophy for NFL Europe. They also took on the British Army Foundation College and won 37 to 0.
The newly formed Junior Flag team, (who play non contact), have played one friendly match with Crawley and are currently preparing for the 2006 flag season.
Pathfinders practice and recruit all year round. Regardless of your age, ability or experience everyone is invited to Sunday practice.
