About the club...
Chingford Athletic Football Club was formed as recently as the summer of 2007 and we currently compete in the Ilford & District Premier Division following last season's promotion. We were brought together from a few local teams and once we had our place in the league for the 2007/2008 season assured, we were looking forward to building a long and illustrious history for the club. Now, after a comfortable mid-table finish in our first season, and two cup semi-final appearances and promotion in our second season, the club are looking to push forward on all fronts.
One of the main signs of this is that the upcoming 2009/2010 season will see Chingford field two men's teams, both in the Ilford & District League. To do this we require at least 32 players so the new season looks to be as busy as ever before for all involved.
Our second season was an improvement on the first and promotion was well deserved, but fell agonisingly short of collecting any silverware. This season we hope to go one better, and with everyone's hard work and support, there is no reason why this can't be achieved.

Last Match... Newham Warriors 1 - 3 Chingford Athletic (League)
The curtain came down on Chingford's second season with a 3-1 victory courtesy of two unlikely scorers. In a game that didn't mean anything in terms of league position for Athletic, they took the chance to change positions slightly. Firstly, makeshift striker Arnold netted, then in the second half fellow centre-back Thompson played as a striker and bagged the deciding two goals. more | End of Season... The season has now come to a close and overall it has been a success. Well done to all the players on promotion and a couple of good cup runs. Also, a big thank you to everyone who has helped to organise things this season and even bigger thank you to everyone who has come to watch and cheer us on over the past 8 months. Pre-season starts in June where we do it all over again, this time in the Premier League! |
