4th Annual Peter Ford Memorial Match

4th Annual Peter Ford Memorial Match

James Edmund27 Sep 2025 - 12:12

Wednesday 8th October - 7:00pm Kick-off Corsham Town FC

AFC Corsham invites the whole community to join us for the Peter Ford Memorial Match – a special evening celebrating 50 years of our club and remembering a man who gave so much to our football family.

Now in its 4th year, this popular fixture brings together a mix of past and present players, coaches, and parents – full kits, full-hearted effort, and plenty of laughs (even if not quite full match fitness!).

Who’s Playing?

Two handpicked squads will go head-to-head for the coveted Peter Ford Trophy:

Bristol Rovers (not really)
Managed by Max Bray & San Deane

Vs.

Swindon Town (not really)
Managed by Mark Godley & Matt Bown

Expect passion, banter, and maybe a few tired legs by the final whistle!

What to Expect on the Night
• 7:00pm kick-off under the lights at Corsham Town FC
• Bar open with drinks and refreshments
• The return of former players, club stalwarts, and committee members
• A chance to share in the celebrations of 50 years of AFC Corsham

Entry is free – but we’ll be asking for small donations on the night in aid of the Leafy Lane 3G fundraising project. Every contribution helps us bring this once-in-a-generation facility to the community.

Why You Should Come

This is more than just a football match – it’s a night to bring the AFC Corsham community together.

Whether you’re a lifelong supporter, a new member, or someone looking for a great local evening out – we’d love to see you in the crowd.

Bring the kids, bring your mates, bring your voices. Let’s fill the stands and show what our club is all about.

Wednesday 8th October – 7:00pm Kick-off
