New Defibrillator at Seafield Park
8 March 2025
Crofton Saints FC is proud to announce the installation of a new defibrillator at Seafield Park, significantly enhancing the safety of all players, supporters, and visitors. This vital piece of life-saving equipment was secured through the club's dedicated efforts and generously funded by County Councillor and Madam Mayor of Fareham Pal Hayre, and Fareham Borough Council.
Sudden cardiac arrest can strike without warning, and immediate access to a defibrillator can dramatically increase survival rates. Recognising this critical need, Fareham Borough Council has ensured that the facility is equipped with a defibrillator. The addition of this device at Seafield Park aligns with the Council's commitment to public safety and the well-being of our community.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Madam Mayor Pal Hayre and Fareham Borough Council for their unwavering support in making Seafield Park a safer environment for everyone. Their collaboration with local organisations underscores a shared dedication to community health and safety.

Crofton Saints Adult Team Wins League and Cup Double
Braishfield 0 v 3 Crofton Saints
Southampton Saturday League Cup Final
AFC Totton Snows Stadium
8 May 2024, 7.30pm Kick Off
Crofton Saints Adult Team beat Braishfield on Wednesday night 3-0 to lift the Southampton Saturday Football League Cup at the first time of asking. This follows securing the league title a few weeks ago meaning the team will be playing in the Hampshire League next season, the highest league any Crofton Saints team has ever achieved.
The cup final was all but over by half time with Crofton Saints scoring all three goals in the first half through Malin Bowman, Ben Stanley and Harvey Clark. Malin's 19th minute unstoppable free kick was rifled into the Braishfield goal with his left foot and Ben doubled the lead one minute later with a thunderbolt from one yard. Harvey completed the goal scoring in the 38th minute latching onto a great through ball from his brother George and taking the ball all the way to the byline and calmly slotting it in from an acute angle.
The second half didn't see anymore goals from either team but did see two Braishfield players get red cards in the final minutes of the half for some pretty agricultural tackling.
This trophy was added to the Premier League winners trophy with Crofton having lost their first league game in the Southampton Saturday League going on to not lose another league game for the rest of the season.
Overall, the teams time in the Southampton League was very enjoyable but it's onwards and upwards to their next challenge in the Hampshire League.

Lions and Panthers Tour to the Bruges Cup
29 March to 1 April 2024
Over the Easter weekend this year members of our teams travelled to Belgium. We stayed in De Haan at the Centre Parc complex. This was our base for travelling to KSK Steenbrugge football club in Belgium for the cup tournament.
We travelled by coach after a very early start the day before. At the ground we received a very enthusiastic ‘welcome back’. The tournament is very much a lottery in terms of the strength of teams we faced. We played 8 a side. We had one substitute for the Lions. Some teams fielded one or two players that were up to two years in age above. So we were up against it with rather large players and teams of Academy standard. The structure of the leagues and rounds were such that teams streamed into similar strengths as the two days progressed.
Whilst our results were not so positive we ended on a high with a win. The way both our teams integrated and rooted for each other as time went on was something to celebrate. The singing and chanting of the Panthers for the Lions was amazing to witness. This was particularly so when a blended team of Panthers and Lions (many teams did this) took on Rotterdam Academy. They were a well drilled quality side. They were quite physical. Despite losing our boys stood against them with courage and determination. This has gone down in our teams ‘folklore’ as a defining moment in each of our teams playing history.
As Easter was early the weather was wet but at least it dried enough to enjoy the medieval city of Bruges before returning home. At Centre Parc the lads were able to enjoy the swimming pool complex. We held a medal ceremony on our last night after a meal.
The main benefit of the trip was the shared experience of travelling to a new land to play football. The whole experience will have been an enriching experience for all of our players. They made many lasting memories and had a great deal of fun. Whilst they were two separate teams they came together as one by the end of the trip.
Thank you to the club for affording all of us this opportunity through its generosity.
