Edmonton Rovers were founded in July 1976 by former player David Ashton and current Club Chairman Laurence Hughes when they were 15 & 17-year-old pupils at Edmonton County School.
The club started off by playing one season in the Enfield & District Youth League’s Under-17’s Division before entering the Edmonton Sunday League in 1977, winning a Division 8 League & Cup double in Season 1979-1980.
They then moved to the Haringey & Tottenham Sunday League in 1984, winning a Division Two title in Season 1987-1988 before moving to the much stronger Waltham Sunday League the following season in which they stayed for 28 years without winning a single trophy until that League folded in 2016.
On joining the Barnet Sunday League for Season 2016-2017 though, a new group of players joined and the club immediately won the Division Two title without losing a match. However, most of those players all drifted away after finding Division One too tough, and after the disruption from Covid, a completely new group of 16-17 year-old players were brought in to re-start the club in the bottom division for Season 2021-2022. These included the sons and nephews of long-serving players from the 1990’s and it is hoped this will keep the club going for many more years.
Edmonton Rovers are famous for being the first Sunday League ‘You Tube’ team, with Club Secretary/Chairman Laurence Hughes (a professional cameraman) having started filming their matches way back in the mid-1980’s, then uploading highlights of every match to You Tube some 10 years before the likes of Palmers, SE Dons & Baiteze Squad started the modern trend.
