The East Berks Football League is up for a Berkshire Football Award in the category of Best Individual Event of the Season sponsored by Cap ‘n’ Chino
The competition has been organising ‘showcase’ Friday night matches for its clubs for several seasons under the lights, first at Burnham FC and this season at Slough Town’s Arbour Park.
The games have proved a huge success drawing big crowds to what are Step 7 games.
The nomination we received for the award said: “The event was a huge success. As the club secretary of Bracknell Aces the event was played at Slough Town which had a huge attendanc. The EBFL did wonders on hosting this game against FC Bracknell including hospitality planning, volunteers and so on. More non-leagues should definitely look at running events like this as it helps both the clubs and the league grow stronger, plus more opportunities to have people play at a Step 2 football ground in front of big crowds like that.
“I believe it was only Maidenhead United and Reading FC that weekend that had larger crowds in Berkshire.”
Agree that EBFL should be up for the Best Individual Event award? Or do you have someone else in mind? Let us know in the nomination form below:
