FA AWARD
The Club was awarded it’s FA Charter Standard status in late May, after two years hard work behind the scenes.
The award brings recognition from the FA that the club demonstrates a commitment to the highest standards and best practice in developing youth football in the area.

The final requirement of qualification was to successfully gain FA Level 1 coach status for groups u8 and upwards, and as the club continues to grow, we will be adding further personnel to this list.

WOKING COUGARS TOURNAMENT
Thanks to all those who played so well last Sunday at the Woking tournament, held at the Winston Churchill Sports College.
We almost made it through to the semis again- a bit like at Ockley!
Match results were:
Staines Lammas 3-0 Eagles
Goldsworth Park 1-1 Eagles
Eagles 5-0 Chertsey Town B
Eagles 2-0 Woking Cougars
Eagles 2-2 Oxshott Royals
Our 10 goals were scored by Sam Kaye (5), Jack Berringer (4) and Will Westcott.
We needed a win from the last game to go through to the semis.
We were 2-1 up v Oxshott with a couple of minutes left, and then conceded an equaliser.
Strong performances from Sam K and Jack B working very well as a striking pair, Finlay did very well in goal (2 games), and the two Wills as backs.
