Saturday 21st March 10:00 am

Following last year’s Wimbledon Tennis Stadium Tour, this year we’re starting our run of social events with an exclusive “_behind-the-scenes_” tour of the AFC Wimbledon Stadium.

You’ll learn about the inspiring journey of a football club that emerged from adversity to become a leading example of fan ownership. The tour covers 136 years of club history, from its very first match on Wimbledon Common, through decades of change and the unforgettable 1988 FA Cup Final, to the split that led to AFC Wimbledon’s rebirth. Discover how the club climbed the leagues once again, culminating in perhaps its greatest triumph—returning to Plough Lane thanks to a fans-funded campaign.

*The tour is wheelchair accessible.

Places are limited, so please respond promptly if you’d like to attend. To secure your spot, please RSVP by no later than Monday Morning (16 March) via email to:

                            paul.ashurst@headwayswlondon.org

We need your details and those of anyone who will be accompanying you on the tour.
