Season 2023–24

After a hugely successful second season, the Crab Champions League is back for another summer.

What’s better than a kick around in the parklands on a warm summer’s evening followed by an ice cold beer?

Keep your fitness and form up over the summer with a semi-serious football competition.

Our summer league is an open competition to people of all abilities and most ages—it is not really suitable for anyone still considered a Junior (i.e. under 17s and below). We have both men and women playing. Invite your friends and former teammates, everyone is welcome.
