We don't pay our players and survive by goodwill, generosity of people's time & a little gate money.
We had an average crowd of 52 last season. Right now, they could stand SIX metres apart at our ground & still all fit in. But they're not allowed.
That's ridiculous.

- Promotion secured!! ✅ 💚
- Hengrove Athletic was formed in 1948 from players that were demobbed after National Service. Football shirts were difficult to get hold of so each player's family donated a plain white shirt & one mother dyed them all green in the bath at her Knowle home. We will never forget!
- The legend that is @luke_crewe hangs up his boots this afternoon after one final @HengroveAFC match at @PortisheadTown At the heart of everything in the past decade and a half at the Grove, Crewey will be missed on the pitch for his leadership, his goals and his commitment. 💚Here we go then, for one last time!!
- 13 -0 we was unlucky
- Continuing our introduction to our 2020/21 @TSWesternLeague first team squad.. First up is @luke_crewe . 31 next month but still as fit as he was "back in the day". One of the highest scoring full backs around, a mean set piece taker & even has an FA Cup hat trick to his name!

- The club would like to issue the following statement. Last week, Hengrove Athletic were among several clubs to have been asked to join the new European Super League. We are pleased to announce that we completely reject the offer & reaffirm our commitment to the @TSWesternLeague
- The @MalagoInsurance Man of the Match in todays 4-2 win over @LongwellGreenFC was Will Banks. He received his bottle of bubbly from chairman Mike Greatbanks. Well done Will.
- Just learned that the guys from @MangotsfieldUtd left their changing room pristine last night, having swept up & got rid of their rubbish. Thanks guys, that's a nice touch!
