The new season for the Welwyn Hatfield Sunday Football League kicks off this Sunday 7th September. Like most Sunday league's in recent years the number of club's competing is well down on a few years ago.

One of the most random results ever came last season when Welwyn Pirates and Shamrock Rovers drew 10-10 (yes that's right - TEN-TEN!!) in a game which I'm told saw a supporter score a goal which was allowed to stand. This sounds like proper football to me.
The Cold End did film one game last season which saw Welwyn Campus come back from 2-0 down to win 3-2 against Eight Bells in the Division One Cup at Woolmer Green. Highlights of an eventful and entertaining match are below -
If your local to Welwyn or Hatfield why not take in a game if your free on a Sunday morning.
