Why the Corinthian League?

We believe we offer a competitive and well-run football league that covers the areas of Havering, Barking & Dagenham, Redbridge, Thurrock, Brentwood, Newham, Waltham Forest and Epping Forest.

We have a number of divisions offering sides of all abilities the chance to take to the field on a Sunday morning, be that just a kick about with a group of friends or more experienced players wanting to test themselves against the best.

There is a great network of clubs and referees within our League along with a strong committee of individuals that work tirelessly to support the running of this League in a smooth fashion.

With an impressive website and social media presence, add this to cup finals being played across the wonderful facilities of Dagenham & Redbridge FC, Aveley FC and Barking FC, we believe we offer a very competitive and enjoyable experience!

After a difficult couple of seasons recently due to the pandemic, we remain as eager as always to ensure our clubs enjoy the experience of getting out onto the pitch each Sunday morning.
