🚨 Breaking News 🚨
Today the committee decided to purchase a defibrillator ready for the 2021/22 season!!!!! (Hopefully it stays boxed away gathering dust)
Keeping our member clubs and its players as safe as possible is of paramount importance to us.

Whilst we don’t volunteer our time running this league for recognition. It’s little things like this that make all the hard work worth while. 🙏🏼
@EnglandFootball
@FA
Haters will hate regardless. Both teams had moments of great football and both teams made mistakes, that’s football for you....
I’m proud of our bunch of ‘farmers’ and think last night was a fantastic advert for grassroots football and all the passion that goes with it
Due to the rising number Covid cases within the league we feel it is within the best interests to take the necessary action to suspend the seasons with immediate effect.
Our clubs, players, match officials and their families safety are our number one priority. 1/2
Massive thanks to croydon council for working with us on pitch provision so we can try and get this season completed. Massive boost for our fixtures 🙌🏻
Secondly, we like to welcome the new clubs who were all voted into our constitution tonight. We know you’ll be good additions to our league

#DoNotMissThis
It is with deep sadness that we have to inform you, that Paul Scott former League Secretary of CMSFL has passed away.
Paul also ran a very successful team, AFC Thornton Athletic and was someone who was well respected.
Our thoughts are with his wife & family at this sad time.
I was told today that I shouldn’t be at a football match, apparently women should be at home cooking a Sunday roast. I bet my cooking is better than his football (and I’m shocking in the kitchen!)
WE NOW HAVE OUR LEAGUE CUP FINALISTS!!!!

11am Kick-off
@beckenhamtownfc
Come and join us for what should be a right Bobby Dazzler of a football match!!
We were pleased to see some of our referees attend the final league meeting last night before the start of the 23/24 season. They discussed the importance of respect in the game with those in attendance and are looking forward to the new season just as much as we are
#NoRefNoGame
We have been made aware of some totally unacceptable social media posts made by one of our clubs and it’s players. We will be conducting a thorough investigation and taking whatever action necessary.
It’s a fine day for a game of football. Remember although it’s more than a game, we all do it for the same reason. So leave the anger at home. Enjoy it, respect each other (and the refs) and fist pump after the game‼️
It’s finally Cup Finals week. We start with the Invitational Cup, 10:30am KO

Teams playing at the moment not only put their health, their teams health & everyone they come into contact with in danger but they also risk delaying the start of football again for everyone

#StaySafe
I think now would be a good time to remind all our clubs of our league rule 24 (on page 29 of the handbook for ease of reference) regarding social media content 👀
I have a challenge for our teams to set to their players.....
Dizzy penalties!!
Spin around fast 10 times and then attempt to score a goal. Then upload your videos tagging us in them. We need a good laugh, Gordon is beginning to do our heads in
Today Tamil football took centre stage in the Croydon borough. With the CMSFL playing host to Lewisham Utd vs

If you’ve ever listened to The Sunday League Show, or any of the
@PodcastSelk
podcasts, you’ll know not just how hard Andrew works but also how much of an advocate he is for grassroots football.
If you have a spare 5 mins, give SELK a vote.
We are fully aware of the serious incident that took place today at Purley Way Playing Fields. We are carrying out an investigation and will be supporting the Metroploitan Police with theirs. We will not be able to comment further until the Police have concluded their enquiries.
Oh football ⚽️ how we’ve missed you. And we’re delighted it’s back this weekend, but we urge all clubs and their players to follow the covid-19 guidance
Non-compliance could result in the league or clubs being suspended...... You have been warned
