Eton Manor F.C. - A Brief History
 
 
 

Eton Manor were formed in 1901 by rich and influential families of the likes of Barings, Villiers and Lord Chelsea for the benefit of bringing sport to the door and underprivileged youth of the East End of London. Various clubhouses used in the early years and eventually the sportsground at Hackney Marshes known as "The Wilderness" was used, this started a period of great success in the thirties for the club's football, cricket and rugby sides. The success continued into the forties, fifties and sixties with many famous players coming from the club, Alf Ramsey and Len Wills are just two to have played for the Manor in past. In the 1960's the sports separated and went their own way, and so started long period of traveling for the Manor's football team using a number of stadiums along the way. After playing in the Greater London League, the club moved to the Essex Senior League in 1975 and have stayed with the competition ever since.

The start of the 2003/04 season sees a mixture of old and new faces at the club, in both managerial and playing capacity. The club hopes that this fresh injection of bodies and much needed new sponsors ( K Sports & Another Level Scaffolding ) will help put the Manor back in contention for the long overdue success they deserve and a place they can finally call "HOME"
