On the eve of a return to training manager Andy Leese reports " It's starting to feel like the football season is coming with the draws out today for the FA Competitions and a return to training for the players this week. The FA Cup has provided us with home draws, and we play away in the Trophy at Bedfont Green who are newly promoted to step4. The Cups are important in terms of finance and prestige, and as ever we will be looking to progress as far as we can in every competition we enter. They are important to supporters as well, and that was evident last year when we had some great days and nights on the road. If we can come close to what we did at Truro,Corby and Maidenhead, we will be delighted.
"We return to Pre Season Training tomorrow evening.I will update the latest Squad situation on the website, but there has been plenty of activity since April, as we look to improve the group we have. The composition of the League has changed again, and we need to adapt and bring in the right calibre of players if we are to improve on last year's showing. I have been working hard to do that, and making sure we retain the nucleus of last season's squad. It all requires patience, and I am sure there will be more movement between now and the end of July."

I am pleased to announce some changes within the structure of the other teams within the Club. Following last season’s successful venture into the Suburban League (in conjunction with Amersham FC), we have decided to continue with a Reserve team under our own banner. They will play in the Suburban League, and Bob Hatcher will step up to manage that team. I am pleased Bob will continue his association with the club, and will commit his time and coaching to developing young players for the Club.
We have recruited Gary Breeden to take over from Bob running the Youth Team in the Allied Counties League. Gary is a Level 3 Coach, and an FA Tutor, who has a wealth of experience in Youth Football. He has worked with Rushden and Diamonds FC, and last year was involved at Hemel Hempstead FC. Gary has plenty of contacts within Youth Football, and along with the Reserve structure, we aim to recruit and develop the best of the local football talent in the area. We will be looking to build links with Colleges and Clubs higher up the Pyramid.
To that end we will be holding a TRIAL DAY at 6.30pm on 17th June 2009 at Dr Challoner’s Grammar School, Chesham Road, Amersham. We are looking for players aged 16-18 who are keen to join and develop with a progressive Non League club. If you are interested, please contact Gary on 07798 885752, or Bob on 07850 682997.
I am delighted with the progress we are making in terms of giving young players an opportunity to play for, and develop their football with Chesham United. I think this new structure will provide them with a good standard of coaching, and they will be joining an ambitious club. Ultimately they have the chance to come through to the first team, and it can only be good if we have local boys in the team

Twelve months after suffering the agony of failing to make the play-offs, Chesham suffered the lesser agony of getting into them and losing. After an hour everything seemed to be going well - Chesham were deservedly ahead and Nuneaton had been reduced to ten men, but the home team eventually muscled their way through as the home crowd came to life and roared their team on and Chesham tired.
There was only one change to the team, Nick Leach coming in for Andy Keepence who was injured on Saturday. Nuneaton's supposed injury crisis turned out to be nothing of the sort as nine of their team played in theleague fixture three weeks earlier. Unsurprisingly.... Read More
