CLUB NAME: PARK VIEW FC

ESTABLISHED: 1991

MOTTO: “Discipline & Hard work”

WE HAVE COME A LONG WAY AND STILL AIMING HIGH

We are a London based, non-profit making body that organizes and manages a small football club, with the objective of developing young and adult talents from different communities, in the hope that some of them will progress through the amateur level to the professional levels. Equally, by supporting social diversity and community integration, we hope to also help build confidence and friendship within the different communities.

We started in summer 1991 at Chestnuts Park (Opposite St. Ann’s Hospital, South Tottenham N15) as a group of friends and family kicking about every Sunday afternoon, then progressed to organising football matches against other friends, who had taken the same cue and interest in kicking about every Sunday in other parts of London. We then moved a few times around, before settling at Down Lane Recreational Ground, Park View Road Tottenham summer 1996.

In 2003 we got affiliated with Middlesex County Football Association (MCFA) and joined the Ghana Football Society (GFS) League, which we initiated and help to form through the MCFA. In 2005 Park View FC through commitment, discipline and hard work was awarded The FA Charter Standard. In that same year the club won the GFS League and went on to become champions in 2 successive seasons.

In the 2007/2008 season, we progressed to the Division One (C&E) of the Middlesex County Football League (MCFL) and we made our presence felt by winning the Middlesex County FA Cup 2008 and making it to the MCFL Senior Open Cup Final. To add that we wrapped up the season as the 2008 Middlesex County Division One League Champions gaining promotion to the Premier Division. The 2008/2009 season in the MCFL Premier Division kicked off very well till mid-season, whiles leading with 8 points clear off second place; we withdrew from the league. We joined the London Football League (LFL) – Premier Division in the 2009/2010, where we began business as usual.

Making a real difference – the way we (PVFC) see it!

Football is a very passionate game that is enjoyed worldwide and since we are equally passionate and committed, we hope this in one-way or the other will help keep young people off the streets thus away from crime and social irresponsibility, whiles equally promoting good health and fitness within the community.

As we support community involvement at the grass root level within the football industry, we believe it is time for the Park View Football Club (PVFC) to look for alternative ways of creating public awareness through all forms of media sponsorships.

With every effort and stride made we sincerely believe Park View FC have come a long way. The club’s sharpness and ability to keep a tight focus both on and off the pitch as reflected in our nickname ‘Snipers’ will ensure we go forth to achieve even better heights in the future.
