The East Berkshire Football League has teamed up with Slough Town F.C to bring a series of Showcase Match events to the Arbour Park Stadium in Slough this season.
The new partnership will see four games in the Premier Division played at the home of The Rebels, starting with a clash of old rivals, Chalvey Sports and Langley F.C on Saturday 30th November (7.30pm kick off).
The Showcase Match provides a unique opportunity for players in the East Berkshire League to compete in a Non-League stadium, often for the very first time, and for clubs to promote themselves to the wider football community.
And, this season the E.B.F.L is proud to announce that revenue generated from ticket sales will be donated to two chosen charities; Thames Hospice and Sport In Mind.
Robert Stevens is the General Secretary at the E.B.F.L. He beamed: “We’re thrilled and extremely thankful to the team at Slough Town F.C to have the chance to bring our Showcase Match events into the heart of Slough at Arbour Park.
“The stadium represents some of the best footballing facilities in our area, and so it will be a privilege for our teams and players to show off their talents and abilities at Arbour Park.
“The Showcase Match was an instant success when first introduced in 2022 and has gone from strength to strength with crowds into the hundreds coming out to support their local clubs as well as the local grassroots league.
