Long Lane JFC was founded in 1981 and took over the derelict grounds at Kidbrooke Playing Fields in 1994. Three years later the club became a registered charity and with the aid of fundraising and grants has developed the facilities into some of the best in the southeast. During the London 2012 Olympics the club was chosen as a training facility and hosted some of the worlds best footballers.

In 2012/13 the mens first team entered the Kent County League for the first time and has remained there since, now playing in Division 2 (West). The senior ladies are currently in Step 6 of the womens football pyramid, in Division 1 of the South East Counties Womens League. The club now has around 40 teams ranging from U7's through to vets, including girls teams at various age groups.

Jodie Cocks 3 years ago

Negative experience: The man running the team for long lane under 11s is appalling and should not be aloud to train. My boy had been going for a few weeks as a goalie. Apparently the team needed a goalie to get told they have a goalie for the time being but he has heard in the pipeline that the goalie is leaving just after Christmas and he could be goalie. After getting my sons hopes up again he then tells us that my son is no longer needed as he has got another goalie! It's ridiculous and disgusting! I would bring your child to play for his team he leaves them for over 10 mins injured with out checking on them !

Positive experience: A good place to hold a private function in these days of lockdown slow release. Social distancing in place and, with good weather, extensive grounds with picnic tables set good distances apart. Plenty of good food and helpful staff. If the weather had been bad, the bar area is also large enough to cater for a good size group (maybe about 60 people social distancing?) Plenty of car parking available.

Fantastic experience: A great, grassroots football club with excellent facilities. Girls football is well supported and actively encouraged. Need to find a team to play for? You'll definitely find one here. Always looking to raise money to improve their already impressive facilities. To people only giving one star? Really? Please substantiate your review or people will think it's just because your team lost there. Just saying...
