Chertsey Town Team Roster

No players are recorded in the available Chertsey Town squad listing. That means the page cannot provide a verified breakdown of goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders or forwards, and no individual player names are presented. The absence of a recorded roster should not be treated as evidence that the club has no playing squad; it marks a limitation in the published team information. A fuller squad view would require a current registration or matchday list, which is not available here. This status also prevents reliable assessment of age profile, depth or positional balance for the 2026 season.

More about Chertsey Town

Chertsey Town Football Club is an English non-league club based in Chertsey, Surrey, with an identity rooted in more than a century of local football. The club was founded in 1890 as Chertsey FC, and the Town suffix was added to its official name in 1951. Its history has included competition in the Surrey Senior League, Spartan League, Combined Counties League and Isthmian League, reflecting the changing structure of the English non-league pyramid. The club’s permanent home is Alwyns Lane, a short walk from Chertsey’s historic town centre. The ground has been the club’s base since 1929, after land was donated in trust by Sir Edward Stern for the leading club in the parish. A rustic main stand dating from the mid-1950s sits alongside a modernised clubhouse, giving the venue a traditional character while supporting the social side of matchdays. Chertsey’s colours are associated with amber or yellow and black, and the nickname The Curfews links the club to the historic curfew bell in the local parish. That connection gives the team a distinctive civic identity, with the badge and visual traditions reinforcing its Surrey setting. The club is described as operating through local stewardship, committee organisation and active volunteer and supporter involvement, alongside youth and junior sections. On the pitch, Chertsey belongs to England’s domestic non-league ecosystem and has no recorded participation in official UEFA club competitions. Its most prominent celebrated achievement is a Wembley FA Vase triumph, a landmark that strengthened the club’s profile in the grassroots game. The combination of a long foundation date, a settled home, community involvement and sustained regional competition defines Chertsey Town’s place in English football.
