Men’s 1st XI 2 – 2 Hampstead & Westminster 2s The final home game for the M1’s before the Christmas break welcomed a top of the table clash with Hampstead & Westminster.

Old Cranleighan M1s 8 – 2 Brighton Old Cranleighan M1s delivered a dominant performance on the south coast, overpowering Brighton 8–2 in an entertaining and high-tempo encounter. Brighton opened the scoring almost immediately, capitalising on a loose turnover to make it 1–0 inside the first minute. OC, however, responded with composure rather than panic, settling […]
Chelmsford 2 – 5 Old Cranleighans Men’s1st XI A long trek to Chelmsford ended with three points and an unplanned partnership with Sports Direct.

Men’s 1st XI 3 – 4 Wimbledon 2s It started like a dream. Four minutes in, Old Cranleighans nearly took the lead — the kind of “almost” that has you already halfway through the celebration before realising the ball’s still in play. That, sadly, was the high point for a while. Wimbledon clearly didn’t appreciate […]

Old Cranleighan 1s 1 – 2 Spencer 2s Venue: Emanuel School Old Cranleighan 1s got their season underway against Spencer 2s at Emanuel School, late afternoon on Saturday.
