Packed Clapton CFC schedule with 6 first team games in 10 days

In the next 10 days it’s arguably our busiest ever schedule as we have no less than SIX women’s and men’s first team games, of which five of them are at the Old Spotted Dog Ground. The other one is the Brentford away game at their Premier League stadium…

Sat Sep 21 men’s first team at home vs Hoddesdon Town (FA Vase)
Sun Sep 22 women’s first team at home vs Ashmount Leigh
Tue Sep 24 men’s first team at home vs Bridon Ropes (League Cup)
Sat Sep 28 men’s first team at home vs Canterbury City
Sun Sep 29 women’s first team away vs Brentford FC
Tue Oct 01 men’s first team at home vs Harwich & Parkeston (Essex Senior Cup)

With the Women’s Reserves and our Development Teams also in action, plus our youth teams, it’s a relentless schedule for players, coaches, volunteers and fans alike.

There is then a 16-day gap without a home game, then another 3 in 4 days.

Please do spare a thought for all the club volunteers working on the pitch, serving pints, operating the turnstile, doing the laundry, selling merch, producing programmes, putting on the pink bibs, liaising with opponents and refs etc. Can you help out? Email info@claptoncfc.co.uk
