Old Amplefordian Football Club

The Old Amplefordian Football Club welcomes new players, especially those old boys moving to London from university. I remind you that our team is 100% Ampleforth. Our "home" pitch is in Wimbledon (rented off Merton Council) but we would like to improve the quality of our pitch so we are always on the look out for a better option.

Contact: Louis Robertson email:louisrob@gmail.com

We have some new players this season, including young blood such as Patrick Teague (T05), Johnnie Stein (B03), Tom Gosling (E/EW05) and Guy Bartleet (D04). Furthermore, recent leavers, Francesco Amodio (T08) and Stanislas de la Rochefoucauld (C06) played in a cup victory over Old Westminsters IIIs who are in the division above. Patrick Teague has captained us this season with great success and I am being ably supported by Paddy [Teague], Luke O'Sullivan (B00) and Charlie Wright (T02) in the running of the club.

Significant contributions from Luke O’Sullivan (B02) and Fergus O'Sullivan (B03), and a special mention to Charlie Wright (T02) for overcoming a horrific injury and serious operation”
