Club History (06/09/07)

THE MOTTO:
The club motto 'SANITATE CRESCAMUS' means "May We Grow in Health".

THE SHIELD:
The shield is divided into four, with each part representing different aspects of Croydon.

The first has three Choughs and are taken from the coat of arms of Thomas Becket (Choughs are also known as Beckits), this is to acknowledge the close link between the Archbishop of Canterbury and Croydon.

The second quarter has three splayed crosses with pointed feet taken from the See of Canterbury's coat of arms, again acknowledging their link.

The third contains the blue cross of the Arch bishop Whitgift acknowledging his patronage of the town of Croydon.

The last contains a wall symbolising Croydon being a town.

THE CLUB HISTORY:
Croydon Girls Football Club (CGFC) was formed in January 2003, in response to a group of girls from a local junior school wishing to play football, but unable to due to the lack of a local girls club. Since then the club has grown to a current membership of approximately 76 girls, ranging in age from 6 to 15, and the club is still growing in numbers.

We now have six teams, Under 10s, 11s, 12s and Under 13s, 14s and 15s eleven a-side. All compete in the Surrey County Girls League, and take part in competitive league and cup matches throughout the season.

The girls train every Wednesday at Croydon High School for Girls to assist in enhancing and improving their fitness and football skills. The team's respective managers run the training sessions, all of whom have attended the Football Association Coaching Course. These sessions have proved both productive and enjoyable for all.

We have established ourselves with local schools and groups, as we recognise that football is a community sport, which enables the girls to gain valuable exercise, whilst at the same time enjoying a sport, and playing as part of a team.

The club has a healthy participation from parents, who form the General and Social Committees. The club is as a family club, run for the benefit of the girls.

Those involved in the club are keen to see the continual development of existing players and those who will join in the future.

Would moving kids' football to a summer game help improve the development of young footballers?
Yes - better pitches mean a better chance to develop technique/skills
No - wouldn't make any real difference to development
Maybe - but I'd be worried about more injuries on firm pitches
