This is a club that you need to visit on a nice day, when there are no weather issues, or when the away team have a twitter account that is updated. Speaking to others who have been here, the last thing you want to do is contact the home club Secretary, who by all accounts is far from helpful and very abrupt and miserable when answering any enquiries about matches……what a great first impression of the club !

Anyway, Rustington tweeted early on that the game was on and with hardly a cloud in the sky, a trip to the south coast beckoned. The match was 6th versus 3rd in the league table, but it was a pretty dull match to watch as a neutral. There was very little quality on show, the unbeaten visitors going ahead when the home ‘keeper spilled a shot for an easy tap in and once the second goal came, it was game over.

When Worthing first entered this league, they played on a pitch as far from the clubhouse building as possible, which is now a couple of small sized pitches. They now play right outside the building, which is Pitch B, according to a plan of the complex that is on the outside of the building.

This now completes visits to all the grounds currently used in this league, although Broadbridge Heath are hoping to move into their new ground in the next month or so.
