SHERWOOD-GREENLAW CHURCH FOOTBALL CLUB
Sherwood-Greenlaw Church F.C. developed out of the weekly meetings for five-a-side football at The Pitz (now Power League) in Paisley, Scotland. In 2001 we decided to have a go at the elevens game on a regular basis, and were accepted into the third division of the Strathclyde Evangelical Churches League.
Our first League season was tough going, with wins few and far between. As one of the two best teams discipline-wise out of all three divisions, we competed for the Fair Play Shield on 31st August 2002, against second division side Anniesland who beat us to win the trophy for the sixth time. In the '02-'03 season we maintained a good disciplinary record, and improved our points total, with 9 league wins and five draws from 22 games giving us a respectable 32 points. The 2003-04 season was our least successful all round but in 2004-05 we bounced back, with no serious drubbings and a few notable wins. Season 2005-06 saw us finish with a record number of goals scored and our highest league position yet, but in 2006-07 we reverted to a frustrating pattern of win one, lose two. We're hoping to do better this season!
Saturday morning home games are played at St James playing fields, Paisley, with midweek fixtures elsewhere on astroturf. Over the summer we play occasional friendlies. Up-to-date fixture details appear on our bulletin board (see link) a few days in advance of each game. All supporters welcome!
