wheathampstead wanderers football club
London
Wheathampstead Wanderers was formed in 1990 by a small group of families from
the village to promote and support youth football for the benefit of children
and young people in Wheathampstead and surrounding areas. Starting as a single
team there were three or four the following season and we just kept on growing.
Today we are an FA Charter Standard Club, granted in 2008, with over 500 boys
and girls playing football plus a men's and ladies team. In those early days the
teams played at the village primary schools, Beech Hyde and St Helens, before
setting up home at Butterfield Road around 1993. We now also have playing fields
and an astroturf pitch available at Marford Road. The ethos of our founder
members remains. We desire to create a positive environment based on mutual
respect, a sense of fair play and good sportsmanship, rather than a
“win-at-all-costs” attitude. We will be magnanimous in victory, dignified in
defeat
