With the two top teams from this round going through to the next stages of the cup, Sussex County Representative side and Maidstone United from Kent will now automatically go through to the next round. Not wanting to miss out on the opportunity to play football, a friendly match went ahead instead of the planned cup matches.

  • History It May Be a Small Island on the Edge of Europe, but Britain Was Never on the Sidelines of History
    © Lonely Planet Publications 36 37 History It may be a small island on the edge of Europe, but Britain was never on the sidelines of history. For thousands of years, invaders and incomers have arrived, settled and made their mark here. The result is Britain’s fascinating mix of landscape, culture and language – a dynamic pattern that shaped the nation and continues to evolve today. For many visitors, this rich historic legacy is Britain’s main attraction – everything from Stonehenge to Glen Coe, via Hadrian’s Wall, Canterbury Cathedral, Caernarfon Castle and the Tower of London – so this History chapter concentrates on the high-profile events and the historic locations you’ll see on your travels. Even if you’re no fan of dates and dynasties, we hope the overview this chapter provides will help you get the most from your trip. FIRST ARRIVALS Stone tools discovered near the town of Lowestoft in Suffolk show that Walks Through Britain’s human habitation in Britain stretches back at least 700,000 years, although History (published by AA) exact dates depend on your definition of ‘human’. As the centuries rolled on, guides you to castles, Ice Ages came and went, sea levels rose and fell, and the island now called battlefields and hundreds Britain was frequently joined to the European mainland. Hunter-gatherers of other sites with a link crossed the land bridge, moving north as the ice melted and retreating to to the past. Take the air. warmer climes when the glaciers advanced once again. Breathe in history! Around 4000 BC a group of migrants arrived from Europe that differed significantly from previous arrivals: instead of hunting and moving on, they settled in one place and started farming – most notably in open chalky hill areas such as the South Downs and Salisbury Plain in southern England.

  • District Proposal
    January 2016 District Ideas 2016 onwards Introduction As Chairman of Sussex Schools FA, I have been thinking of what it would be like to be a footballer in a Sussex School in 2015/2016. I came to the conclusion that my opportunities would differ depending on where I lived in the county. Surely that is wrong?? At present, there are three 'live' districts in Sussex. These are South East Sussex, Brighton and Hove and East Sussex. The latter does not run any inter school football and only runs representative teams. There are also 5 additional 'Areas' that are playing inter-school football (with no district rep teams). Depending on where I lived, would depend on whether I was playing regular rec- ognised inter school football and whether I had the opportunity to play for a dis- trict team.. Again inherently wrong in my opinion. Sussex Schools FA are the governing body for schools football in Sussex. All school football should come via the organisation and be supported. Districts should affiliate directly to the organisation and in return should be supported with any competition. All districts have schools that affiliate direct to them for their inter school competition. Districts also have the option to run District Rep- resentative teams. In this document there are three different sections. These highlight what is currently happening in the county, along with two suggested ideas to discuss. The hope is that schools will discuss these ideas within their area prior to a meeting at the Amex on Tuesday 23rd February at 5pm . The meeting will be an opportunity for schools to voice their opinions about the ideas prior to the Sussex Schools FA AGM in May.
