The Wallahs
The Kew Veterans are the 'senior'
players of the club and are known as 'The Wallahs'
for various dubious reasons, which are expanded
upon in their own website.
The site also features a whole heap of items;
information, pictures, fixtures, results, squad
members and all sorts of weird and wonderful
stuff. Take a look!?
Contrary to some beliefs Veterans
matches although 'friendlies' are competitive
and to a good standard, with most players having
played to a decent level. There are around 28
games in a season, known as 'The Mastership'!
and are, usually, played in a good spirit, on
decent pitches, with good hospitality afterwards.
The Wallahs
are also well known for the social side of things
and this is considered of great importance and
it is considered highly inappropriate to play
and then go home without first having a discussion in the warmth of the bar in the afterglow of victory, or not as the case may be.
As can be seen on the website
The Wallahs travel far afield at the end of each
season and in the last few years have been to
France, Holland, Germany and even Cuba.
The Wallahs
are always on the look out for good quality players
who feel they still have plenty to offer, so
if you've reached 35 years of age and are, preferably,
a decent and committed player who would enjoy
playing regular football with a good bunch of
sociable blokes please call Andrew Heasman on
