Eagles receive County FA Award as Charter Standard Development Club of the Year
On Tuesday 2 June the Eagles received this award presented at the Hetfordshire FA County Awards evening, held at Watford FC. This is a great honour for the club and completes an exceptional year on the field, with success in two County Cup competitions, the winning of three league cups and a number of Royston Crow league titles. Chairman Tony Eden commented that “ this award reflects all the hard work put in by adult volunteers at the club, and in particular the efforts of its officers and team managers. I am proud of the achievements of the club and we shall continue to work hard improving standards and developing the club further”.
The first Eagles team?
Who was it that used to say "Muck about and I will come down on you like a ton of bricks!"
Vince un-earthed this photo of one of the original Eagles teams from around 1980. Recognise anyone? Vince knew a few.

Eagles urgently require coaches
The Eagles urgently require coaches to run teams. Running a football team for children and young people is demanding but very rewarding.

Pitch side advertising
Now available limited pitch side advertising at a cost of £320 a board. During the course of a season these boards will be visible to large numbers of visitors to Pixmore because almost 40 teams will generate a lot of helpers and spectators.
