One Club. One Community. One Redhill. At the heart of the Redhill community since 1894.
REDHILL FOOTBALL CLUB
AT THE HEART OF EVERY TOWN IS ITS FOOTBALL CLUB
REDHILL FOOTBALL CLUB HAS BEEN PART OF THE TOWN’S STORY SINCE 1894. FOR MORE THAN 130 YEARS, GENERATIONS OF PLAYERS, COACHES, VOLUNTEERS AND SUPPORTERS HAVE WORN THE BADGE, STOOD ON THE TERRACES, OPENED THE GATES, WASHED THE KIT, SERVED THE TEAS, COACHED THE CHILDREN AND KEPT THE CLUB MOVING FORWARD.
today, redhill Fc is proud to be a communityowned, not-for-profit football club with a clear purpose: to provide football for all and to make a positive difference in the local area.
We are one club, from our youngest Little Lobsters through to youth football, girls’ and women’s football, u18s, and the First team. every team matters. every pathway matters. every volunteer matters.
our home at Kiln brow is more than a football ground. it is a place where families gather, young players take their first steps in the game, local businesses support their community, and supporters come together behind the Lobsters. The club has grown significantly in recent years, but our values remain the same. We want redhill Fc to be welcoming, ambitious, inclusive and rooted in the town it represents.
ONE CLUB. ONE COMMUNITY. ONE REDHILL.
THE SCALE OF REDHILL FC TODAY REFLECTS THE PASSION FOR FOOTBALL ACROSS THE LOCAL COMMUNITY. WE NOW PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES ACROSS MEN’S, WOMEN’S, BOYS’, GIRLS’, MIXED, YOUTH AND COMMUNITY FOOTBALL.
our youth section continues to grow, with teams across a wide range of age groups and a strong emphasis on enjoyment, development and belonging. our girls’ and women’s programme has become one of the club’s major success
stories, creating new opportunities for players to join the game, stay in the game and progress through the club. our First team, led by Andy Lampard, represents the club at the top of the pathway and continues to connect closely with the wider redhill Fc family. none of this happens without people. Volunteers remain the lifeblood of the club. From coaching and administration to matchdays, events, fundraising, welfare, facilities and community projects, their contribution is what makes redhill Fc possible. We are proud
of our past, excited about our future, and committed to building a club that serves redhill on and off the pitch.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
AS A COMMUNITY-OWNED, NOT-FOR-PROFIT CLUB, REDHILL FC EXISTS TO SERVE MORE THAN JUST FOOTBALL FIXTURES. WE BELIEVE THE CLUB HAS A RESPONSIBILITY TO USE ITS PLATFORM, FACILITIES AND VOLUNTEER NETWORK TO SUPPORT LOCAL PEOPLE, LOCAL FAMILIES AND LOCAL CAUSES.
Football has a unique ability to bring people together. It gives young people confidence, helps families connect, supports physical and mental wellbeing, and creates a sense of belonging that
can last for life. Across the club, our community work continues to grow. We support local schools, provide football opportunities for children who may not otherwise access the game, host charitable activities at Kiln brow, and work with local partners who share our commitment to positive community impact. redhill Fc is proud to be a club where football and community sit side by side.

FOOTBALL FOR THE COMMUNITY
redhill Fc’s community football programme was created to help more young people experience the game in a fun, safe and welcoming environment.
sessions have supported children from local areas including cromwell, timpany Gardens and Whitebushes, giving boys and girls the chance to develop skills, improve confidence, make friends and enjoy being active. the impact reaches beyond the pitch. Families build connections, young players grow in
confidence, and many children take their first steps towards joining a team or becoming more involved in the club. this work is made possible through collaboration. We are grateful to local partners, community organisations, volunteers and coaches who give their time and energy to make these sessions happen.
SCHOOLS, EDUCATION & PLACEMENTS
Working with young people is central to redhill Fc’s purpose. We continue to build relationships with local schools, supporting football sessions,
community projects and opportunities for young people to learn through sport.
our partnership with east surrey college is also an important part of the club’s development. students are gaining practical industry placement experience with redhill Fc in areas such as media, digital content, coaching, events, administration and community engagement. these opportunities help students build confidence, develop workplace skills and make a real contribution to a growing local football club.

REDHILL FC WAS FORMED IN 1894
FOUNDED IN 1894 FOLLOWING A MEETING AT THE WARWICK HOTEL, REDHILL FOOTBALL CLUB QUICKLY ESTABLISHED ITS PRESENCE IN THE TOWN. ITS FIRST HOME WAS WIGGIE FIELD, PROVIDED BY HENRY TROWER, AND THE CLUB SOON BECAME A FOCAL POINT FOR LOCAL SPORT.
over the decades, the reds achieved notable success, reaching the FA Amateur cup semifinals and the FA Cup First Round Proper in 1957. After many years at the Memorial sports Ground, the club moved to its current home, Kiln brow, in 1984.

So in this year, 2024, we are delighted to be able to celebrate our 130th anniversary. This is a tremendous achievement and we are indebted to all those countless players, coaches, officials and supporters who have played their part and contributed to the health of our Club over so many years.
today, Kiln brow serves as the heart of redhill Fc, where our teams compete, and the community gathers. More than 130 years since its formation, the club remains proud of its history and committed to representing the town with pride.

the club’s aim is to create a clear connection between youth, u18, u23 and senior football. talented young players should be able to see
a route forward. coaches should be able to work together. supporters should be able to recognise a club that is building from within. the First team combines experienced players with emerging talent, creating an environment where standards are high and opportunities are earned.
Matchdays at Kiln brow remain an important part of club life. they bring together youth players, families, volunteers, sponsors and supporters, all backing the Lobsters and

PLAYER PATHWAY
REDHILL FC IS COMMITTED TO BUILDING A CLEAR AND CONNECTED PATHWAY ACROSS THE WHOLE CLUB.
From our youngest players through to youth football, girls’ football, women’s football, and the First team, the aim is to create opportunities for players to learn, develop and progress in the right environment.
every player’s journey is different. some want to compete at the highest level they can. others want to enjoy football with friends, stay active and feel part of a team. both routes matter, and both are an important part of redhill Fc. the club’s pathway is built around opportunity, connection and belonging. We want young players to see what is possible. We want coaches to share knowledge across age groups. We want families to feel part of one club, not separate sections.
the First team, led by Andy Lampard, sits at the top of the pathway and represents the ambition of the wider club. the recently formed redhill Fc Women’s team offers a pathway for female football too. the long-term goal is to create a structure where talented and committed players can continue progressing, while every player feels valued and supported. this is what one club means.

YOUTH FOOTBALL
YOUTH
FOOTBALL AT REDHILL FC CONTINUES TO GO FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH.
the club now supports more than 60 youth and girls teams across a wide range of age groups, giving hundreds of young boys and girls the chance to learn, compete, develop and enjoy being part of a team.
our approach is built around enjoyment, inclusion and progression. We want players to feel welcome when they arrive, supported while they develop and connected to the wider redhill Fc community as they grow.
For some players, football is about competing and pushing themselves as far as they can. For others, it is about friendship, confidence, fitness and fun. both are equally important.
the strength of the youth section comes from the people around it: coaches, managers, welfare leads, parents, volunteers and supporters who give their time every week.
As the club continues to grow, our focus is on creating the right environment for every young player and building a clear one-club connection across youth, girls, women’s, and senior football.
A CLUB FOR YOUNG PLAYERS TO BELONG
REDHILL FC’S YOUTH SECTION IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST AND MOST IMPORTANT PARTS OF THE CLUB.
Across the season, our teams train, play and represent the club at venues including Kiln brow, carrington school and other local facilities. every weekend, hundreds of players pull on the redhill badge and become part of the club’s story.
the aim is not just to develop footballers. it is to help young people build confidence, friendships, resilience and pride. this season
has shown the strength of the section, with league titles, cup wins, runners-up finishes, fundraising achievements, national media coverage and the continued growth of girls’ and mixed football. With Alice Gammon now leading the youth section as head of Youth, the club is focused on supporting more than 60 teams while keeping the same welcoming, family feel that makes redhill Fc special.

REDHILL FC FEATURED BY SKY NEWS
Kiln brow welcomed sky news this season as part of a national feature on children’s experiences of school inclusion and belonging. the feature included redhill Fc Youth players speaking about how young people feel in school and why inclusion matters.
For the club, it was a proud moment. not because the cameras were here, but because our young players had the confidence to speak honestly and thoughtfully about an issue that
affects so many children. It also reflected something important about redhill Fc. Football can give young people a voice. it can help them feel seen, supported and part of something.

A SEASON TO BE PROUD OF
CARRINGTON ASTRO FUNDRAISING COMPLETE
A major achievement this season was the carrington Astro fundraising campaign, which smashed its £10,000 target by raising a total of £18,050. these funds secure long-term access to the new facility, scheduled for completion in late 2026.
the campaign’s success was driven by diverse community efforts. half-term and easter girls’ football camps raised over £1,400, while
eight-year-old emilia from the u9s raised an incredible £800 by walking and running 200 miles. club tournaments also contributed £700, including significant support from the inaugural u7 event.
Key institutional support came from the Michael & barbara Foundation, whose £10,000 donation transformed the campaign. Finally, the wider redhill Fc family of members and supporters generated nearly £6,500 through close to 200 individual JustGiving donations.

GIRLS’ AND FEMALE FOOTBALL AT REDHILL FC HAS GROWN RAPIDLY AND IS NOW ONE OF THE MOST EXCITING AREAS OF THE CLUB.
the aim is to provide clear, welcoming opportunities for girls and women to play football at every stage of the journey, from first experiences of the game through to youth teams, competitive football, recreational football and women’s football.
The growth of the girls’ section reflects the huge appetite for the game locally. redhill Fc is proud to offer a positive environment where players can develop skills, build friendships, grow in confidence and feel part of the wider club.
the pathway begins with younger age groups and continues through girls’ teams, female football opportunities and the women’s setup, with plans for a women’s full first team coming
soon. Whether a player is new to football or already experienced, the club’s ambition is to make redhill Fc a place where she feels welcome, supported and able to progress.
the social side of football is also important. team events, club activities and matchdays help players and families build lasting connections.

For younger players, it means looking and feeling connected to the senior teams. For supporters and families, it helps create a stronger sense of belonging. For the club, it reinforces the message that every player is part of the same redhill Fc family.
Wherever our teams play, they will carry the same badge, the same colours and the same sense of community.
