| COVENTRY CITY | |
The Coventry City London Supporters Club (CCLSC) was founded on 25th November 1976 and is still going strong. Membership peaked in 1996 (276) and has sadly, if predictably, dropped since our demotion from the Premier League currently standing around the 160 mark. Membership fees are currently: £13.00 for UK and Europe, £6.50 for full-time students, unwaged, disabled, senior, and junior citizens and £18.00 outside Europe. Additional family members can join for free, and everyone gets a membership card. Although we are completely independent of both the main supporters club in Coventry and the parent club, CCLSC has excellent relations with Coventry City FC and award an annual Player of the Season trophy, usually at one of the home games near the end of the season. In the recent past, we have organised dinners and forums to which Coventry City have sent past or present representatives. We also published our own 21 year history back in 1997, a history updated, largely pictorially, in 2004. CCLSC are strong supporters of APFSCIL which we joined in February 1977. Our darts team has been competing, with a fair amount of success, in the APFSCIL League since 1978. Sadly our Soccer ( 1983-2000) and Quiz (1977-1993) teams are currently mothballed awaiting revival! We are also affiliated to the Football Supporters' Federation and the Association of Coventry City Supporters Clubs and Groups (ACCSCAG). Despite all the changes in the rail network, our aim is still to get our members to matches in comfort and at the cheapest possible prices, whether by organising our own travel or in conjunction with other APFSCIL clubs. Our main channel of communication with our members is our quarterly magazine, "The Sky Blue Special", which is the usual mixture of general interest articles, humour, stats, sports and social updates, committee news, photos, etc. We have also set up our own website.
