Parking At Palewell

On a typical Sunday four or five hundred people come to Palewell for the football and this puts a lot of pressure on the parking.

Please make sure that you park legally, if you do not then you are very likely to be ticketed. It may appear to you that cars can still get by but there must be access all the way down the road for emergency vehicles including large fire engines.

Cars double/triple parked, particularly in the area where the two entrance roads meet are likely to be ticketed and possibly clamped or towed.

Sheen Lions U11 – 1914 Football Truce

Sheen Lions U11 and Woking Cougars – 1914 Football Truce

The First World War broke out 100 years ago in 1914. The opposing armies quickly became bogged down in trench warfare.  Around the first Christmas many unofficial ceasefires broke out along the front and men from both sides mingled in no man’s land.  Famously some football matches were held between the lines and football has decided to unite to remember this spirit with photos of both teams together.

Well done to our U11 Lions for taking part.
