Our Community

The Pumas are very proud to be back in Maidstone as we feel that it is the community from which they arose, but in the past few years we have also forged some excellent links in the Medway Towns.

We are currently in the proccess of forming a Youth section in our club as it has been highlighted that there is a great deal of interest in both the Maidstone and Medway areas.

Recently one of our coaches has been visiting the Maplestone Noakes school in Maidstone to assist in teaching flag football to year 8 students and there are other schools in the area that have also shown interest. We plan to work closely with these schools as they try to set up an inter schools league which would be a great benefit to the sport in Kent.

Charity work

The Pumas main charities are Cancer Research and Breast Cancer Awareness. For the first we recently had the privalige to join in the fun at the 'Relay for Life' event in Hoo by giving a football demonstration and entering a team into the Tug-O-War competition.

Previously the team helped to marshall the Breast Cancer Awareness 'Race for Life' event and we are hoping to be able to do so again later this year too.
