HUTTONFC VS. RAYLEIGH TOWN
P R O G R A MM E
CLUB HISTORY
Rayleigh Town can trace its history back to 1897 with a team called Rayleigh Star and after a number of changes the current name of Rayleigh Town was adopted in 1946.
The Club’s home ground throughout the 50s and 60s was at King Georges public park off Rayleigh high street
The Club leased an 11-acre site from the Council in 1970 and developed its own pitches and clubhouse over a two-year period – without any external funding, at that time the Club had three teams in the now defunct Southend & District League.
The First and Reserve teams joined the Essex Olympian League in 1976 and have been reasonably successful in the intervening years.
The First Team winning the Premier Div 6 times, the Senior Cup on three occasions, and the prestigious Essex Premier Cup on 4 occasions
In 2024 this ambitious club broke a 23-year barren spell without silverware when they won the BBC Essex Saturday Premier cup and were crowned champions of the Essex Olympian League for a seventh time and with it promotion into the Thurlow Nunn first division south, Step 6 of the national non-league pyramid enabled by the club’s agreement to play its home games at Concord Rangers Thames Road home
There are exciting ground opportunities ahead, which hopefully will see the club offer a wonderful hub for the community of Rayleigh to watch and play football.
And so a new era begins...

HUTTON FC HISTORY
The club was founded in 1928 and has been prominent in local football since that time with cup winner’s medals dating back to 1932. A key factor in the continued success of Hutton Football Club is the progression of young, local players. The senior teams played in the Mid Essex League until 1989 when progression was made into the Essex Intermediate, now the Essex Olympian League The Club expanded rapidly after 2005 with the merger of Hutton FC and Hutton Medway FC (established in 1969) The Club now has 70 teams based in our local community.
The current club house has been at the Polo Fields for over 50 years, two previous buildings being destroyed by fire, and the second one having been struck by lightning In 2010, the Clubhouse was vandalised and set on fire but has now been repaired and enhanced thanks to a large grant from Sport England.
Recent history has seen more rapid developments at the club The Football Association awarded Hutton FC with Charter Standard Community status which is the highest accreditation a club can achieve. In 2005, when the award was granted, there were only nine clubs in the whole of Essex with this status The Club is very proud to have been awarded Community Club of the year twice by Essex County FA The club has been encouraging girls to come and play for a number of years, and in 2005 the first official Hutton girls’ team was formed and since then, our Ladies 1st and reserve teams have been added to help with progression.
The Club has been involved in a European Tournament played against professional clubs' youth teams, with outstanding facilities. The Clubs are; Saint Ingbert (Germany), Rumelange (Luxembourg) and Zandhoven (Belgium).

MATT ROSE, FIRST TEAM MANAGER
Evening All,
First off, I’d like to say a big thank you to everyone at Hutton FC for the warm welcome I received on Saturday. It’s clear this is a club full of good people and genuine togetherness and I’m really excited to get stuck in and be part of this great club.
Saturday’s FA Vase game against Haringey Borough was a great occasion for the club. Although the result didn’t go our way, I couldn’t fault the lads’ effort and attitude. We showed real character against a strong side, and that performance gives us a solid platform to keep improving.
Today we welcome Rayleigh Town, a talented and very well organised side. We are expecting a tough test and I have full confidence in the lads to get the job done.
Thank you again for your continued support
