It goes without saying that a football club doesn't run itself, and while the players are to the general public the most visible club representatives, there are a number of other people working away behind the scenes to ensure that a match goes ahead at all on a Saturday. Whether it's running the team, organising fund-raising events, securing sponsorship, balancing the books or putting up the goal nets on a Saturday, Vale of Leithen FC are privileged to be able to call on a number of people who volunteer their time for the advancement of the club, and this section of the website is dedicated to the frequently unsung team off the park.
