East Ayrshire side lift Warriors FA League One trophy
A Kilmarnock football club are celebrating after securing the title in their maiden season.
East Ayrshire FFIT, who are based at Synergy Arena, lifted the Warriors Football Association League One trophy last weekend after completing a tremendous first campaign.
FFIT - which stands for Football Fans in Training - is a programme aimed at getting folk fitter and improving mental health through playing football with the Warrior Football Association being described as 'Scotland's only grassroots weight loss football association!
The club was founded less than a year ago through committee members Johnny Armer, Peter McClurg, Richie Morrison and Gary Parker.
Shortly after, the coaching team of Scott McLean and Mark Pearson were brought on board.
