When the old GEC Sports Ground in Wembley became a housing estate in 1989, the club lost its home. For a couple of seasons the teams were nomads, while a handful of committee members searched for somewhere permanent. What they found in Radlett was an overgrown site. It had been a rugby pitch since 1922 and a football pitch until 1990, and it had gone unmaintained for two years. When it was first viewed, travellers had only just moved off what had once been the pitch.

In 1992 the club took the lease on the Medburn Ground, and the work began.
Nobody was paid to do it. Players, parents, committee members and friends gave their evenings and weekends and plenty of their own money. Together they built a clubhouse and changing rooms, brought the main pitch back to life and kept going. A second pitch followed in 2012, along with a bigger car park and more pitches for the youth section. The ground is now among the best football facilities in Hertfordshire.

Behind every stage of that story are people, who captained the side through, and , who scored the goals, the physio who patched up generations of players from the touchline and treatment room, and the managers, who managed the first team through seasons and achievement. And Mick Brodie, one of the originals, whom the club remembers with great affection.

Paul Lehane’s support has also been a major part of the club’s past and present, and, we hope, its future.

The reward for all that effort came recently. After winning the Premier Division of the Herts County Senior League, the club worked towards step 6 ground grading. In August 2024 the floodlights went up, and at the end of September we played our first ever game under them, in the Combined Counties League Division One. Two play-off finishes have followed, and for the 2026/27 season we are back in the Combined Counties.

Every pitch, every wall and every floodlight at the Medburn Ground came from people giving their time for the love of the club. That spirit is why Belstone is what it is today, and we’ll keep it going. Tunajenga Pamoja! We Build Together
