LCA Athletic, our very own 6-a-side football team, returned to action last week in a Thursday night league based in Battersea. The team, including three debutants, secured a very credible 3-3 draw with goals from Simon Lawrence, Nabil Hanafi and Duncan Hepburn.

There was a record breaking attendance for the win by Team GB’s women over Brazil in the football at Wembley last night.

The new Premier League season began at the weekend and this was the view of the south end at the Emirates yesterday with a crane in the reflection marking the regeneration taking place nearby – a key part of the new stadium gaining planning permission ahead of Arsenal’s move from Highbury.

This was the view down the former Wembley Way (now Olympic Way) as London Communications Agency Football Club strolled towards the Variety Club 5-a-side Cup in Wembley on Friday. A full report from the tournament will be found here on the blog later this week.
