After successful years of playing for Canford, Louis James C17 and Max Johnson C17 recognised the need for a more formal OC football club for alumni. Thus, the Old Canfordian Football Club (OCFC) was created. Working closely with the school, past pupils, and the Arthurian League, they officially launched the club in 2023.

The response from the OC community has been fantastic, and the club proudly made its debut in the iconic blue and white of the Old Canfordians on September 2nd 2023. The Arthurian League, established in 1961 by Old Etonian and FA Cup Winner Arthur Dunn, includes around 40 schools across six divisions, with matches held every Saturday in London and the South East. The club is starting in Division 5 and has ambitions to climb the ranks, with dreams of one day featuring in an FA Cup fixture.

The club hopes that their weekly games and regular social events will not only keep members connected with their own year groups but also provide opportunities to meet and reconnect with all Canfordians, both old and new. Anyone interested in joining or supporting the club is encouraged to get in touch with Louis & Max.
