Football Team Bank Account

So i have been treasurer of a football team that a friend and myself started back in February. Since then we have tried to open a club account with various high street banks with no success, I believe that this is because I have a CCJ on my credit file.
Does anyone know of any other way of setting one up. The Secretary and the Chairman but have poor credit ratings but we dont want any credit, it will simply be somewhere for the club to keep their money from players and a way to pay pitch fees etc.
at the minute I am using my savings account, i know this is a big no no, but we have been left with no other option.

If you have a CCJ you will struggle for an account - could other people be signatories on an account?0

They will do credit checks - from their point of view you could pass personal transactions through the account if you are struggling to get an ordinary account.0
