Club History
The original home of Belstone Football Club was the old GEC Sports Ground in Wembley. In 1989 this became a housing estate. The teams were then nomads for a couple of seasons and the committee embarked on a search for a permanent home for the club.
Eventually a site was found that had become overgrown in Radlett, Hertfordshire. It had been a rugby pitch since 1922, more recently a football pitch until 1990. Between 1990 and 1992 the ground had not been maintained and, when first viewed, travellers had just moved off what used to be the pitch. In 1992, the club secured a lease on “The Medburn Ground” which is still home to Belstone Football Club today.
Many hours of hard work and a considerable amount of money has been spent enabling the club to build a new clubhouse and changing rooms, develop the main pitch and surrounding areas.
A second pitch was added in 2012, the car park area extended and now additional pitches to accommodate the youth section and provide some of the best football facilities in Hertfordshire. Having secured promotion by winning the Premier Division of the Herts County Senior League, the club embarked on an ambitious program of work to improve the clubs facilities to achieve ground grading in step 6 football. The final part of these improvements got underway with a site meeting in mid- August 2024 for the installation of floodlights, and we held our first ever game under the lights at the end of September 2024 in the Combined Counties League Division One.
Having finished in the play-off positions in our first season in step 6, following our move to the Spartans South Midland League for the 2025-26 season finished in the playoffs again. We have since moved back to the combined counties for the 2026/27 season
The club was fortunate to have Husqvarna as our sponsor, however Paul Lehane has made a huge contribution to the past, present and, hopefully, future success of Belstone Football Club
