Club History


Eastwood CFC, a community football club that has truly come into its own since its establishment in 2014. Today, we stand on the threshold of an exciting new era under the leadership of our new Owner & Chairman, Darryl Claypole.

At Eastwood CFC, we pride ourselves on our "One Club One Community" philosophy. This core belief underscores our commitment to not only being a thriving football club and an integral part of our community but also building a community within the football club that people are proud to be associated with. Through this philosophy, we strive to foster a sense of unity and inclusivity that transcends the boundaries of the pitch. We are dedicated to giving back to our community, engaging with fans and supporters, and creating a positive impact beyond the beautiful game.
Together, as one club and one community.

One of the hallmarks of our new era is the groundbreaking technical partnership agreement with Benfica, a world-renowned football institution. This partnership signifies a commitment to player and coach development that is second to none, promising an exciting journey of growth and excellence for our club. It represents a massive investment in the junior players at our football club, we will receive two highly qualified and experienced coaches from Benfica who will come and live and work in our community delivering a level of coaching expertise rarely found at this level. This partnership is all about knowledge exchange and learning from an institution that has a renowned reputation for developing talent.

Additionally, we are proud to be associated with Mango Football, an innovative player development company chaired by none other than former Premier League referee, Graham Barber. This affiliation enhances our commitment to nurturing talent and fostering a culture of excellence on and off the field.

Our junior section, boasting an impressive 28 teams, stands as a testament to our dedication to grassroots football. These teams are not just numerous; they are competitive and successful, embodying the spirit of Eastwood CFC.

Looking ahead, we are thrilled to announce the launch of our football academy scheduled for next year. This initiative will serve as a beacon for aspiring footballers in the region, providing top-notch coaching education and development opportunities.

But the excitement does not stop there. Eastwood CFC is embarking on other ventures that promise to shape the future of our club. As we enter this new era, we look forward to an exhilarating journey of growth, innovation, and success.
