A first goal, a hat-trick, a muddy cup run, a coach hitting a milestone. Most of what appears here started as a parent sending us two sentences and a photo.

Last week of the summer football camp

Youth Transformation Fund backs our next generation of coaches and referees
The Youth Transformation Fund has awarded Summertown Stars £6,000 towards skills development and mental health e-learning. The money will support the young players coming through the club as coaches and referees.
Fitball: players and parents getting fit together
Coach Matt and Coach Tennyson led a football-focused fitness circuit at Five Mile Drive this week, open to players and parents alike. It is a good way to build some fitness before the season starts, and it is completely free.
Thousands join in at our 2026 tournament
The Summertown Stars annual tournament took place last month, bringing 310 teams and 4,000+ visitors to Cutteslowe Park for an incredible two-day festival of football. Teams ranging from U7s all the way through to adults and veterans braved the heat to take part in 975 matches over the weekend.
Season starts Saturday 5 September
Matches start on Saturday 5 September, with training starting that week. Please note the bank holiday on Monday 31 August: Cherwell is closed, so there is no training there that day.
