"Welcome to the Barnes Eagles Website - we hope it provides you with all the information you need about our great football club.

Barnes Eagles is a Charter Standard Community Club and that objective endorsement, awarded by the Football Association, puts it amongst the elite of youth football clubs. Behaviour and discipline on and off the pitch is currently high on the agenda of the nation’s favourite sport. At Barnes Eagles it has always been a key priority and we will continue to do our best to maintain our reputation. Another important priority is our policy of inclusiveness. Whilst we strive for success on the field this is not the be all and end all. Barnes Eagles is truly an equal opportunities Club.

From its modest beginning almost 40 years ago, Barnes Eagles has been providing opportunities for boys and girls of all abilities to enjoy playing the beautiful game. Over recent years the club has enjoyed a period of growth, and in season 09/10 our membership will exceed 550 members. We will field 30 teams with ages ranging from 7 to 18. In addition our Seniors team will be back in action after back to back league and cup doubles.

At the heart of Barnes Eagles remains its Saturday morning Coaching Centre set in 16 acres of beautiful parkland at Barn Elms where children can enjoy improving their football skills in a safe and happy environment under the watchful eye of our resident Chelsea Coaches and our own qualified managers and assistants. Barnes Eagles enjoys a fine reputation in the local community because:

• We provide a safe, positive and competitive environment for children of all abilities to learn and play football
• We are committed to providing a high standard of coaching for our members. All the club’s coaches are minimum FA Level 1 qualified and many are either preparing for or have achieved Level 2. Our relationship with Chelsea Football In The Community and the additional coaches that Chelsea provide is core to the steady improvement in results and playing standards.

Barnes Eagles is an important part of the local community in Barnes and is run entirely by volunteers without whom the club would not have attained its current size and success. We continue to welcome new members irrespective of ability or experience so come along and see us on a Saturday morning when we will be pleased to tell you all about the Club."
