Adur Athletic in Africa kit visit
Adur Athletic, having recently replaced many of our team kits, have donated kits to football clubs and schools in the third world including Bangladesh, Kenya and South Africa. These supplies have been arranged by our Vice President Terry Burton with the assistance of British Airways. Terry was in Johannesburg, South Africa recently together with coaches from Charlton Athletic who were carrying out a community coaching project, and took the opportunity deliver kit for the use of boys from the township of Alexandra.
New Managers Appointed
The Club is pleased to announce the appointment of two new managers, Denise Fordham, who will be in charge of our newly formed Girls Under 11 Team, and Tony Ritchie who will be in charge of our Under 7 Section. Tony will be starting the season for the U7s on Saturday 2nd October and anyone interested in joining this group should contact Tony for further information.
Two New Teams Created
After a successful campaign in Season 2003/04 that saw the Club gain the prestigious Football Association Charter Standard Community Club award, and with our Under 14s winning the League and County Cup, we are looking forward to the start of Season 2004/05. We will be fielding two new teams this year and if you are interested in becoming a member of this Community Club, please click here to see our list of contacts.
Adur Athletic... COUNTY CHAMPIONS!
Congratulations to our Under 14 Team. On Sunday 4th April 2004 they beat local rivals Thistle Youth 2-1 to win the prestigious Sussex County FA C.P. Mason Cup at Lancing. No fewer than 69 teams from all over Sussex entered this competition, and in the seven games played in the earlier rounds and final Adur scored an incredible 64 goals and conceded only 10.

A great double by the Under 14s who had earlier won the Arun & District Youth Football League Under 14 A Division Championship. Unfortunately, our U10-A and 9 teams both lost their finals on 28th March, but both teams did very well to reach the finals. Perhaps, next year, they will go one better.
