When I came to the Quintin Hogg Memorial Ground to see University Westminster play Brunel University 3rds on 13th November 2019, the game was played on the grass pitch in front of the old pavilion. They are now playing their home games on the recently opened 3G pitch, located at the River Pitches part of the sports ground, which is on the opposite side of Hartington Road, sandwiched between Chiswick Bridge and Westminster Boat House. There is spectator access along the full length of one side of the pitch.

The match was third in Division 5D versus fourth in Division 5C. Westminster led at the break courtesy of an own goal, following a diagonal free kick into the box that was inadvertently headed into his own net by a defender whilst challenging to clear the ball. A far post header saw them double their lead just after the hour mark and despite Surrey reducing the arrears a couple of minutes into stoppage time, there was still time for Westminster to restore their two goal margin.
