Lavant’s Pre-Season Underway

Lavant FC kicked-off their pre-season schedule in early July in preparation for the new season starting on the 4th September.

Lavant this season have two sides on Saturdays playing up to intermediate level in the local West Sussex League, Premier Division and Division 2 South respectfully and we are looking for new players to strengthen both sides.

The philosophy adopted at the club is that the process of selection for all teams starts at pre-season. We welcome back all our current players as well as inviting any new players to come along and train together and compete openly for a place in one of our sides during the pre-season. 

Pre-Season training is held twice weekly, every Tuesday and Thursday night initially on the village green, starting 6.30pm prompt.

Please ensure you bring to every session football boots/trainers, running shoes and plenty of water/fluids.

Friendly Games:

Friendlies are being planned for August and the full programme of friendlies will be announced shortly.

During the Season:

From September training reverts back to one session a week on Wednesday nights and starting the 15th September, training also transfers to the All Weather pitch at Chichester University 7pm to 8pm.

Training will remain at Chichester University until the end of March 2022, after which we revert back to Lavant.

So if you are interested in playing for a great village Football Club, local to the Chichester area, then please come along and take part in one of our pre-season sessions. 

If you require more information about the club and the pre-season schedule then please contact either the 1st Team Manager Steve Taylor-Horsley  or Reserve Team Manager John Price via:
