Get in on the action with the Old Lyonian Football Club! Founded in 1902 by Lower School alumni, the club remains a proud member of the Southern Amateur Football League and the Amateur Football Alliance.
With four 11-a-side squads and a veterans team, the club is open to Old Lyonians, friends, and family members. Matches take place on Saturdays from September to April, on the Senior Pitches of John Lyon School’s Sudbury Fields, with away fixtures in different parts of London. The first team plays at a very high level, often coming up against ex-professional players, whilst the lower teams play a more social, but still competitive style of football. In the last few years, the OLFC has enjoyed much success winning both cups and promotions.
In addition, the Lyonian Pavilion offers excellent changing facilities and a well-stocked bar and games room, so you can relax after the game with post-match food considered the best in the league!
