After so many months with no competitive football it’s great to be playing again. Let’s hope we have seen the last of COVID and we can complete the season. Whilst there has been little football over the last few months, the many volunteers within the club have been busy keeping the ground looking smart, and I would like to thank them for all their hard work. A big shout out also to our groundsman, Tim Williamson, for keeping the pitch looking in top condition. The Gaffer has been busy in the transfer market pre-season and we welcome newcomers Joe Thomas, Jordan Blackwell and Dan Jones to the club. We also welcome back Julian Simon-Parson, Jordan Palmer and Adam Hampson. This afternoon we extend a warm welcome to the players, officials and of course the supporters of Newbury Forest. I hope your journey here today was trouble free and straight forward. For your refreshment today, we have a tea bar to the right of the pay kiosk as you come in and a fully stocked bar in the clubhouse which is directly behind the grandstand where card payments are welcomed. Based on previous meetings this promises to be an entertaining game as we are never short on goals when we play each other. Both of the last two games being seven-goal thrillers! Please enjoy your time with us and have a safe journey home.

Made up of a small group of friends who just wanted to play regular organised football together. It soon became apparent though that they all wanted a lot more for the Club. After a few years of getting the infrastructure in place, a Reserve team was added in 2006, followed by a third team in 2007. And so, the expansion began. John's coaching background, having achieved his UEFA A Licence and working at Watford Football Club’s Academy, together with being a Director of the coaching website Inside Soccer, resulted in a very distinct playing philosophy which was instilled within the Club from the start. Players were coached regularly to adopt the playing style still in effect to this day. Newbury Forest teams will always focus on possession and ball retention, developing play from back to front with expansive and creative play that players find a joy to be part of, and that fans enjoy watching. Whilst not always successful, and certainly technically demanding on the players, the individuals who join the club know what the ethos is. They players both enjoy and have the desire to play the game in our own brand of style. DOING IT WITH THE KIDS Newbury Forest Colts were established in 2007 and the Club began with just 2 teams at U9 and U10 age groups. This has grown considerably over the years with teams being played at every age group. Training sessions take place during the week and every Saturday and the Club is fortunate to have enthusiastic, qualified coaches to deliver these sessions. Some who are current senior players working with our youngsters. It cannot be stressed what a tremendous asset it is to the Club to have senior players coaching the junior players. It creates a clear pathway for the youth teams and individual players to progress into the senior teams in the future. Alongside the expansion of Newbury Forest's youth teams, the seniors were also taking huge strides forwards. Having repeated success in the South Essex Sunday Football League, winning successive promotions and league titles together with league cup wins, the Club felt it was time to make the step up into playing more competitive games in Saturday football. The goal? To have at least one side competing in the National League System [NLS - Step 7 and above].
