Welcome to my summer notes which have been written with season 2024/25 in mind.

We will be running one team in the MGBSFL and one in the Maccabi Masters League again. After a difficult season last time around, we look forward to the new campaign with eager relish. Stevie Allen will be entering his second season as First Team Manager whilst Simon Black, whom we sincerely congratulate on his election as Maccabi Masters Football League Chairman, will once again manage the Old Boys Team.

Simon Linden, Vice-Chairman and Director of Football, continues to oversee the playing side of the Club, working with the team managers, whilst our Administration Officer Kerry Higham and myself will continue to look after the behind-the-scenes administration. This kind of teamwork allows our team managers to focus on their respective sides with a view to hopefully bringing the best out of their players.

Although season 2023/24 was a struggle particularly on the First Team front, financially the club did very well to cover another high expenditure. You are welcome to read a summary of the season in these reports – Chairman's Report, General Secretary's Report.

I am pleased to report that we are remaining at Silver Jubilee Park Stadium – where we have a brilliant new display board near the entrance – a venue which provides the best playing surface in the MGBSFL if not anywhere else in London.

The Club has a Code of Conduct which we expect all our players to adhere to, which includes maintaining a good record of sportsmanship and discipline.

I am very proud of TFFC's history, stature, reputation and longevity, which continue to make us one of the best run clubs in both leagues. So as we approach our 49th consecutive season in Maccabi football, we are anticipating stability within the Club and hopefully a good season ahead.

Should you require further information or have any queries related to TFFC, please do not hesitate to contact Kerry, Simon or myself.

Nigel Kyte
