Accordingly, any form of discriminatory abuse whether it be based on race or ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender, faith, age, ability or any other form of abuse will be reported to The Football Association or action by that association” The FA 0800 085 0508 / Kick It Out 0207 253 0162 BEDFONT SPORTS CLUB Bedfont Sports Club was founded in 2002, when with considerable help from the local Council a lease was taken out on the near derelict Hatton Road Recreation Ground. The only building on the site was refurbished to allow use as a bar and clubhouse on the ground floor and changing rooms on the upper one. Most of this work was carried out or supervised by the Chairman Dave Reader. Much work was also done to the playing area to provide playable pitches for Bedfont Sports on Saturdays and Bedfont Sunday, one of the oldest Sunday teams in Middlesex, on Sundays. To give the Club a junior section Bedfont Eagles, formed in 1978,joined the two adult Clubs a short time later. Bedfont Sports started in the Hounslow and District League for two seasons and then joined the Middlesex County Football League, this being a feeder League to Step 5. More work was needed to enable the team to play in the Premier Division of the MCFL to which they gained promotion in 2004/05. After many ups and downs promotion was finally achieved to the Combined Counties Reserve Division in season 2008/09. During this time application were made to the F A and the Football Foundation for funds to enable Flood Lights and a new Dressing Room block to be built together with a 3G five a side pitch. This finally materialised in 2010/11to give the state-of-the-art complex now available at Bedfont Sports. In the Combined Counties League Bedfont gained promotion to the Premier Division in season 2011/12 and have spent the past two seasons consolidating that position. Permanent fencing now surrounds the ground and the erection of a 150-seater stand has been installed. Bedfont Sports is a true Community Club catering for 22 Junior Teams, 2 U18 youth teams, 3 Men's Sunday teams and our senior 1' 1 team. The Youth Section is particularly vibrant playing in the Ryman Youth and Allied counties Youth Leagues and having won the Combined Counties under 18 Cup 4 times in the last 5 seasons also we are currently the holders of the Under 15s Middlesex County cups. Players from the Youth section make the step up to adult football, at least 8 from that section being regulars in the 1st team at present. A successful kick boxing club use the facilities together with a boxing club, a rugby team and three darts teams. The bar area has been recently refurbished as a Sports bar with televisions on all walls. We are very proud that our Youth teams have been home-grown from Bedfont Eagles and with some real talent coming through this will continue for years to come. In 2018 Bedfont Sports won promotion into the Isthmian League, Step 4 in The FA Football Pyramid.

    EAGLES FLY HOME Crystal Palace Football Club Press Conference 20th January 2011 Press Release Crystal Palace FC plan return to historic home We are delighted to announce that Crystal Palace Football Club together with their advisors CB Richard Ellis and stadium designers AFL have been pursuing avenues and that would allow them to move back Eagles Fly Home to their original home ground within Crystal Palace park. Crystal Palace is a unique place, one off the highest points in London, a point where five South London boroughs collide and the home of the club. It also holds a special place in English football, hosting the first cup finals and early England Internationals. The plan is to provide: • 40,000 seat stadium • new indoor aquatic centre • reconfigured indoor sports complex within the existing structure • new community athletics facility Combined this will breathe new life into the National Sports Centre and the park by removing the requirement for the pool inside the current listed structure, greatly reduce the running costs and allow for the current space to be re-utilised for an even wider range of community and elite athletic sports. Planning will be sought for the full 40,000 seat capacity stadium, it may begin life with a reduced 25,000 capacity stadium, dependant on where we are, other uses etc. Steve Parish, Co–Chairman of Crystal Palace Football Club, said: “We are delighted to put forward our plans to return the club home to where it all began. We believe a stadium at Crystal Palace park can help create a bright new future for the club as well as helping to breathe new life into both the sports centre and the park.” What have we done so far Consultation began in July 2010 Click to edit Master title style London Borough of Croydon The club currently sits within the borough of Croydon, as such their support is pivotal to help develop Eagles Fly Home the existing site which will go a long way to financing the new stadium.

Did they rise to the challenge and prove their mettle or struggle against tough competition and low morale? Depending on their level of ability, fitness and motivation, your people can be your most valuable asset or your biggest cost. Few managers have the luxury of a blank cheque with which to re-stock the organisation with fresh blood and new ideas. Recognising the talent within and getting the very best from existing resources is, therefore, an essential skill. Those starting next season at the helm of a new ship will have to identify and exploit their strongest assets quickly if they are to get results in those crucial early months.
