The Harrow Sunday Challenge Football League has been going since 1974, and it is another very well established Sunday league. Last season (2025/26), a very good Broadfields United Sundays side won Division One for the third season in a row. Having gone the whole league season unbeaten, Broadfields United Sunday (they also won the Champion’s Cup and the Whitelaw Trophy) would finish the season with 44 points, after 16 league matches. It was certainly was a superb treble winning season for a Broadfields side who also did well in the county cup.

Seven points behind Broadfields were a talented Street Soccer Skills side. Then in third place with 33 points, were West London Warriors, who were followed by Harrow St Marys. In fifth place in the table and on 19 points, we’re UKTSU, who I remember having a Saturday team in the Middlesex County Football League, in the past. The rest of Division One, in order, would see North West London, Stanley CFC, Homenetmen London, and HA FC Harrow Athletico make up the rest of Division One.

Division Two of this fine Sunday football league, was won by an impressive Róisín Rovers side. With 51 points accumulated from 21 league matches, and two points above second place Harrow Hive Football Club, Róisín Rovers also won the Champions Trophy last season (over Harrow Hive), and they went on a long run in their Middlesex county cup. Tied on 34 points in third place and fourth place respectively, was Harrow Athletic and Forest United (1973). St Nicholas, Kodak (Harrow) Sundays, Woodlands United and Gunnersbury Eagles would, in order, make up the rest of the Division Two table.

I’m definitely hoping to finally cover a game (on my blog) in the Harrow Sunday Challenge Football League during season 2026/27.
