Overview
About the Club
BPR was formed in 1999 when a group of then 15-year old friends wanted to play football together. That team is still going strong and some of the original founder members are still playing.
Since then there have been 10 trophies, 1 league title and over 300 players. While trophies are nice, the greatest reward has been building a family amongst friends.
To keep the spirit of BPR alive, we've started U14, U16 & U21's Male Youth Teams (with an U12's Female team on the way) with the aim to provide the next generation with the same unforgettable experiences we had. The club is based in Dulwich Village and draws our players from Lambeth, Southwark and Lewisham in the most part.
