History of O.M.F.C.

Old Meadonians were founded in 1929
The first match was played against the School Team on 30th November 1929 and the result was an 11-1 victory.
Old Meadonians were formed by the Old Boys of Chiswick County Grammar School, which later became Chiswick Community School. The name "Meadonians" originates from the early name of the School - "The School in the Meadows".
Meadonians now run ten teams. Nine sides playing league games in the Amateur Football Combination and a lively Vets team on Sunday Mornings at least six times per season. We also have an over 45's team playing the ocassional "Testimonial" games for members who are leaving the UK for pastures new.
