Chelsea Supporters Football Tournament 2017
Chelsea Supporters Football Tournament 2017
The 2017 ‘Chelsea Supporters Fans Tournament’ has been confirmed and the date this year will be Sunday 9th July.
The format will be very similar to previous years with 10 team contesting both the Plate Trophy and the Overall Winners Cup, played on two pitches throughout the day. Two new trophies were supplied last year from CSG member Bryan Marriott from Expose Designs and we thank him for his continued support, also many thanks to Chelsea FC for the use of the Cobham facilities once again for the 9th year of this annual event.
The ‘Broadbent Memorial Trophy’ be contested for once again in memory of Tony and Kyle, members of the Broadbent family will be in attendance on the day to help with the awards.
As in previous years we expect the entries to be oversubscribed and we ask all teams wishing to enter to contact us here by 9th June at the LATEST, all entries will go into a hat and the ten teams will be drawn by a member of Chelsea FC staff to ensure fairness. All successful teams will be notified following the draw.
Please remember, all teams entering MUST BE CHELSEA SUPPORTERS and not play together in any leagues, this is a ‘Fun Event’ and although we expect some competitive spirit please remember what the day is all about, a chance to play at Cobham and to play in a fun tournament with fellow Chelsea supporters.
Entry fees this year will be notified to all teams in the near future once we know the costs of St Johns ambulance etc, but I’m sure will be similar to previous years fees. Any excess money will go in the charities pot that will benefit from the raffle that we hold on the day.
This year Chelsea are donating some great prizes once again and other prizes have been donated by other CSG members, further details on this will follow. All incomes from the day goes to our charities and we ask you to support this on the day.The two charities this year will once again be ‘Regenerate UK’ and ‘Chelsea Foundation’ who both do great work within the Chelsea community.
St Johns Ambulance will be around during the day to supply plasters and cuddles! We also have the refreshment wagon available for food and drinks. We have also ordered the sunshine but have no guarantees of this appearing!
There will also be an appearance by some of the Chelsea Old Boys who once again will assist with the refereeing during the day!! again, details of who will be attending will be confirmed in the near future.
As always, help and assistance will be encouraged and indeed, welcome. If you would like to come along to assist us then please e-mail us here.
Further updates will follow and we look forward to seeing you and your teams on the day.
Peter and Cliff

Another journeyman offering my skills to any team short of a player. Late 20s, been in the same 6s team for a decade (only Chelsea fan though), striker/mid, left defence or back up keeper.
If anyone is interested, just give me a heads up.
Cheers, Alex.
Thanks Alex, details have been passed on, see you on the day I hope
