The History of Westfields F.C.

Westfields Football Club commence the new
2022/2023 season again in the UHL Hellenic
Football League having played last season and
finished 7 despite having great ambitions to
th
finish in a promotion place.

The 2 previous seasons were previously
claimed null and void due to the coronavirus
situation but in Westfields’ first season in the
Hellenic League they were 13 points clear when it was curtailed due
to the coronavirus when promotion to the Southern League looked
on the cards.

Last season was a slight disappointment, not only in finishing 7 in
th
the league table but also FA Cup and FA Vase performances were
disappointing and in the Herefordshire County Cup we lost to
Hereford FC.

However, we are now ready for the new season and Phil Glover our
Manager has been busy with retaining a large group of players from
the previous season and Phil himself will be assisted by Paul Willetts
our Assistant Manager and Coach Tony James, and once again we are
sure that the players and management will be anxious to gain a
promotion place.

During the last 56 years Westfields have enjoyed a meteoric rise
throughout the West Midland league to the Midland Football League
and along the way have finished runners up twice in the Midland
Football League and narrowly missed out on promotion to the
Southern league South and West having finished runners up to
Gresley Rovers and Stratford Town in previous seasons.

Westfields celebrated their 50 Anniversary season in the 2016/17
th
with an amazing giant killing run in the FA Cup which saw them go
through to the first-round proper before losing to Curzon Ashton
following a Match Of The Day game at Allpay Park in the first round
