TADLEY-CALLEVA FC
Welcome to Tadley-Calleva FC
Football has been played in Tadley since the early twentieth century. In its modern form, the club was re-formed as Tadley FC in 1989, playing in the Basingstoke and North Hants leagues before progressing into the Hampshire League.
The club took the name Tadley Town FC in 1999 and became Tadley Calleva in 2004 as it entered the Wessex Football League. The name Calleva recognises the nearby Roman settlement of Calleva Atrebatum at Silchester — the inspiration for our nickname, the Romans.
Today the club plays its football at Barlows Park in Tadley, with a first team, reserve team and Under-18s representing the club across three competitions.
