Eastbourne Football Club

Welcome to Eastbourne Football Club

Our club, Eastbourne Football Club, stands as a pillar of community spirit and sporting passion in the heart of Wellington. Since our establishment in 1967, we have been dedicated to fostering a love for football among players of all ages and skill levels. As a family-friendly club, we provide a welcoming environment where everyone, from tiny tots in our First Kicks programme (ages 4-6) to experienced players in our Senior teams, can thrive. We field both Junior and Senior teams, including age grades from 7th to 14th for boys and girls, as well as three Masters grade men's teams and one women's team. Run entirely by volunteers, our club relies on the incredible support of parents and sponsors to help children and adults alike develop their football skills while enjoying the camaraderie of a team environment.

Our Home in Eastbourne, Lower Hutt

Situated in the scenic suburb of Eastbourne, Lower Hutt, our club is proud to call Wellington home. Our main playing ground, Bishop Park, hosts most of our home games, offering a fantastic venue for Senior and some Junior matches. Due to space constraints at Bishop Park, many of our Junior games take place at the nearby Williams Park in Days Bay, ensuring all our young players have ample opportunity to shine. Wellington's vibrant community and stunning landscapes provide the perfect backdrop for our football activities, making every match day a memorable experience for players and families alike.
