  • A weekend of football at JBFC

    A weekend of football at JBFC

    A message from our Chairman, Josh Allcorn ….

    “It was great to see so many Jarvis Brook teams get to play this weekend. Across Saturday and Sunday, we had a number of games and training sessions taking place. It’s great to see and the club is at its best when we are busy!

    I want to thank you all for your patience over the last couple of weeks. Having to postpone games and cancel training is never an easy decision to make but the weather has not been kind. Let’s all hope Spring decides to come early this year and we can get out there more consistently.

    In other news, on Tuesday night (20th Jan), our first team have a cup quarter final vs Steyning Town from the Premier Division. Our home matches under the lights are always a special occasion and I love seeing people from different teams and age groups come out to support the team and create a wonderful atmosphere.

    Our club needs your support right now so I am hoping we can attract as many of you as possible to come up and cheer them on. The bar and cafe will be open, so whether you want a beer or a bovril to accompany your burger, we can help you out!

    Kick off is 7.30 and hopefully we see lots of you there cheering the team on.

    Thank you, and up the Brook!”

    Jarvis Brook FC Announce Appointment of New First Team Manager – Dominic Fitzmaurice 

    Jarvis Brook Football Club is delighted to announce the appointment of Dominic Fitzmaurice as the club’s new First Team Manager

    Following the recent departure of former manager Jacob Baldwin, the club has moved swiftly to bring in Fitzmaurice, who previously enjoyed tremendous success with Oxted & District — guiding the side to a double-winning campaign in the Mid Sussex Premier Division

    This season marks Jarvis Brook’s first year competing in Senior Football in the Southern Combination Football League Division 1. The appointment of a manager with Fitzmaurice’s experience and ambition signals Jarvis Brook’s intent to continue building momentum and developing both on and off the pitch. 

    Club Chairman Josh Allcorn shared his excitement about the new arrival: 

    “Dominic has a wealth of experience and knowledge of senior football as well as knowing our squad and fitting with the club’s ethos” said Allcorn. “We very much look forward to him joining us and being integral to the continued success of the club.”   

    Everyone at Jarvis Brook FC welcomes Dominic to the club and looks forward to an exciting new chapter under his leadership. 

  • Boot Swap – Give your old boots a second half!

    Boot Swap – Give your old boots a second half!

    At Jarvis Brook FC, we know how quickly football boots can be outgrown, worn out, or replaced — especially for our younger players! That’s why we run a Boot Swap scheme, helping our players, parents, and community reduce waste and keep everyone in the game.

    Every year, thousands of pairs of football boots end up in landfill. Most still have plenty of life left in them — just not in the same size. Synthetic materials used in modern boots take decades to break down, and with the constant churn of new kit and equipment, football contributes more to clothing waste than many people realise.

    By taking part in the Boot Swap, you’re helping:

    • Reduce waste by reusing quality boots instead of throwing them away.
    • Save money — football can be expensive, but access to good gear shouldn’t be.
    • Support the community — every donation helps our club and keeps players on the pitch.

    How It Works

    1. Bring in your old boots – They must be clean and in good playing condition.
    2. Swap for a new-to-you pair – Find a size and style that suits you.
    3. No boots to trade? – No problem! You can still take a pair by making a donation (suggested min of £5) to the club – give your donation to the team working in the café or to anyone from the club committee

    Together, We Make a Difference

    Football is about teamwork — on and off the field. By reusing and recycling our gear, we’re cutting down on clothing waste and making the game more sustainable for future generations.

    So next time you’re at training or matchday, check your cupboards and see if you’ve got a pair of boots ready for a new home. Small swaps can make a big difference!

    Drop-off/ Collection point: Boots are displayed on the right hand shelving unit as you enter the clubhouse.
    Boot Swap days: Available when the clubhouse is open on Saturdays and Sundays.
