Awards for PAUL HILL and MICHAEL MAIDMENT

At the 2025 Corinthian-Casuals End of Season awards, the Youth Section's Paul Hill and Michael Maidment were recognised for their service to club.

The Youth Section’s General Secretary, Michael Maidment was presented with the Lifetime Achievement Award, for his long service and dedication to the Corinthian-Casuals. For several decades, Michael has dedicated his life to the Youth Section, and has overseen its growth, into one of the biggest grassroots clubs in Surrey, incorporating over 40 teams and over 400 families. Thousands of young players have passed through the club under Michael's tenure, whose hard work and motivation brings footballing opportunities to the young footballers of our community. The club has benefitted significantly from Michael’s knowledge and experience in youth football, and to be recognised by the club for his service and dedication is a testament to how highly he is valued by all.

Paul Hill, Chair and executive committee member of the Youth Section, was presented with the Dedication Award, for his work with the under 18s and Youth Section. Paul created the u18s a few years ago, to provide a bridge between the youth and the senior football and has worked hard to establish a pathway for young players. His reward has been watching his u18 players debut for the senior team over the past few seasons. Paul's dedication to the Youth Section and the u18s has been exemplary, and the award recognises his work with players, the Youth Section Committee and with the main club.

Paul's u18s are currently flying high, reaching the later stages of two cup competitions and are sitting second, (with three games in hand) in the u18 Combined Counties League.

Congratulations to Paul and Michael for taking the Youth Section to the next level. You are both owed a tremendous debt of gratitude by so many players and families.

Remembrance Sunday November 10, 2024

Remembrance Sunday, 2024, was once again immaculately observed by all our teams. Once a year, we pay our respects to those who sacrificed their lives in the service of the Country. As a club that lost more players in the First War, than any other association football club, it is particularly poignant that we stand together on this day and recognise those who played for the club and who played 'the greater game'.

Recent research has identified over 125 players who fell in WWI, and over 30 in WW2. New research is uncovering a growing number who also fell in the Boer War of 1899/1902.

"Each generation stands on the shoulders of those who have gone before them"

Written by Fred Bickley, one of the founders of The Casuals, who made over 300 appearances for the club. The poem expresses his emotion at the enormous cost paid by his generation in the service of their Country during the war of 1914-18.
