Chalke Valley Football Information
The club as it is today was founded in
2002 as part of the Chalke Valley
sports initiative. It was formed by
amalgamating the three established
valley clubs; Ebbesbourne, Bishopstone
and Broadchalke. Currently it has
three teams; the first team play in
the Salisbury & District League
Division One with the reserves in
Division Three. The third side play
on Sundays in the Salisbury & District
League Division Two. In the short term
the aim was to consolidate and
establish the club with aspirations to
progress the first team upwards to a
higher standard of football.
Players of all ages and ability are
most welcome. At present we have
players that range in age from their
mid forties down to 15 years of age.
We also have ‘masters’ football on
Tuesday evenings for the over 40’s
from 7pm to 8.30pm – this is when you
can witness real soccer!
Facilities at the Chalke Valley Sports
Centre are second to none in the local
area and in fact Nick Holmes, current
manager of Salisbury City, remarked
that most clubs in the South of
England would be envious. Changing
rooms are spacious and warm with en-
suite showers (Referees have their own
private room and shower). There are
full Bar and catering facilities for
after match socialising complete with
TV.
None of the above would be used if it
were not for the kindness of our
sponsors; The Queens Head, Broadchalke
and Alliance Packaging. To both
organisations a big thank you.
Training takes place year round on
Thursday evenings beginning at
7.30pm. During the winter months the
floodlit enclosed multi user games
area is utilised with training on
grass throughout the lighter evenings.
So whatever your level, beginner or
professional, we will make you most
welcome. If you are interested in
playing, feel you may have something
to contribute on the coaching front or
just wish to be a social participant,
please contact General Manager, Ian
Newman on 01725 552516 or email
steve_chalk@hotmail.com. For a full up
