Walton Casuals FOOTBALL CLUB

First established in 1948 , Walton Casuals FC is based on Church Road in Surrey and their first team currently competes in Division One South of the Isthmian League . They are led by Chairman Tony Gale and have put together a history of which they have every right to be proud over the years .

In 2013 they won the Surrey County Premier Cup and also tasted success in 2000 , winning the Combined Counties League Premier Challenge Cup . They have also experienced success in the league format of the game with titles in the Combined Counties League and the Suburban League . Their current group of players will be keen to add to these successes over the coming years .
This season their first team has put together a solid league campaign , having compiled a record of fifteen wins , five draws and eleven defeats from their thirty one matches . This has left them sitting in a safe mid-table position with fifty points on the board .
This should provide them with a solid platform from which to build both this season and into the future . As long as they are able to retain their current group of players and can perhaps make one or two quality additions they will be in with a good chance of pushing on up the league . One of the highlights of the team ’ s performances this season has been the attacking brand of football that they have been able to produce . This has been reflected by the fact that they have found the back of the net 66 times in the league alone at a rate of more than two per game .
This will certainly have meant that any supporters attending their matches will have been well entertained and should encourage more of the local community to get behind the side in the future .
This in turn has the potential to provide the club with a valuable source of additional revenue which is particularly important in the current financial climate .
