John Wharton Vice Chairman Kendal Town Football Club
The guests at the meeting of Kendal Rotary Club on 21st August were Michael O’Neill (Chairman) and John Wharton (Vice Chairman) of Kendal Town Football Club. John Wharton gave a presentation detailing the state of the club. When they took over the running of the club, they had a massive debt which has now been sorted and currently they are once again debt free and the club is now on a much better footing. The attendances have doubled and they now have a full-size men’s team, a ladies team and an under 23 team and are hoping to achieve promotion from the North West Counties Premiership to the next higher league.
