EDMONTON ROVERS DVD CATALOGUE

OUR SUNDAY LEAGUE FILMING HISTORY

Since way back in 1990, we have covered a number of Cup Finals for amateur Men’s (and occasionally Ladies) Sunday League teams in London and surrounding counties (i.e. Hertfordshire, Middlesex, Essex, Kent & Surrey). These Cup Finals invariably take place at the end of each season during March, April & May, and we are assisted by experienced freelance cameramen so that we can cope with filming several matches at different venues on the same day.

Most of the bookings we receive to film Cup Finals are as a result of one of the participating teams reaching a Final after beating our sponsored club Edmonton Rovers in an earlier round and then buying a copy of the Match Video/DVD or watching highlights of the match on our You Tube channel.

However, with Hughes Video Services owner Laurence Hughes having been Secretary of Edmonton Rovers since their formation way back in 1976, he has consequently built up a number of contacts in Men's Sunday Football in London and surrounding areas during that time, and several Cup Finals have therefore been filmed on the basis of a good reputation.

In addition to Men’s Sunday League clubs, we have also filmed numerous Cup Finals for ‘grass-roots/park teams’ in Saturday football as a result of their players playing for Sunday League Clubs who have either faced Edmonton Rovers or hired us to film Sunday League Cup Finals.

Our contact details and website address is included on the back of every DVD insert that we produce, including those for Edmonton Rovers matches, and many bookings that we receive to film matches are from clubs who have seen another club's DVD and contacted us as a result.

We also receive a lot of bookings for filming Cup Finals because our prices are so low in comparison to other video companies. We prefer to charge a low price for filming, editing & production and charge relatively high prices for extra copies rather than the other way round. This ensures that Sunday League clubs can afford to have their game filmed in the first place. Full details on how we can film Cup Finals & other matches for amateur ‘Sunday League’ Mens & Ladies Teams can be found under Filming Matches.

Our various filming options  and prices can be found on our Pricing, Payment & Delivery page.

Over the past few years, and especially since we started producing matches on DVD, we have received numerous compliments from satisfied customers who are impressed with our finished product, and for Mens' (& Ladies) Sunday Teams, it can be a great boost for team spirit when the whole team get together to watch their Cup Final DVD on a big screen down the pub. For them, it is just like watching the Premier League ! Click here to see just a few of the testimonials we have received.

‘FOOTBALL FOR FANS’ TOURNAMENTS

Since 2007 we have been filming the Frank McAvennie Adults Tournaments every Summer at West Ham United's Boleyn Ground for

Football For Fans, and we hope to cover more Tournaments for them in the future.

Football For Fans specialise in giving amateur players the chance to play in a professional club's stadium as part of an all-day Tournament.

This also includes a tour of the stadium before the Tournament starts, and for the Adults a post-match meal. Matches in the Frank McAvennie Tournaments are all 11-a-side, invariably as 15, 20 or 25-minute matches. These are all filmed by one cameraman filming from high above the half-way line in an Upper Tier opposite the players’ tunnel, so we therefore get an excellent view of the players running onto the pitch to the strains of ‘Bubbles’ being played over the P.A. System !

DVD's are produced for each participating team (if requested before the Tournament starts), but these are only available directly from Football For Fans and not via this website. To enquire as to the availability and cost of DVD's, please contact Tournament organiser Jeff Garner.

OUR SUNDAY LEAGUE DVD CATALOGUE

Once we have been paid for the filming, editing & production of a Sunday League Cup Final (or other matches) by the participating team(s) who have booked us, the match will then be listed in our Sunday League DVD Catalogue on this website for the general public to be able to purchase a copy (unless the teams(s) who have specifically booked us to film the match request otherwise). We still have the master copies of Sunday League Cup Finals dating right back to 1990 and indeed we often receive enquiries from players who played in matches that we filmed many years ago who have either lost their original copy, didn’t buy one in the first place, or bought it on video and would now like a copy on DVD. Most of the Cup Finals we filmed before 2003 are still on video only, but we hope to be able to transfer them all to DVD and list them all on this website as soon as we can.

We are currently working on producing an online catalogue for this website whereby DVD’s can be purchased individually using credit or debit cards via PayPal. This will completely replace the old system of having to post cheques to our office with a hand-written order form. We hope to have this facility in place at some stage during 2012. To order our DVD’s in the meantime (by BACS payments, cheques or cash), please view our Sunday League DVD Catalogue for instructions.

MENS’ SUNDAY LEAGUE MATCHES AGAINST EDMONTON ROVERS F.C.

All Edmonton Rovers matches are filmed by Laurence Hughes (Club Secretary & owner of Hughes Video Services), so if your Sunday Team is lucky enough to be playing them, then you will not have to pay a filming fee (which you would if you booked us to film a Cup Final for example).

Copies of Edmonton Rovers Match DVD's are always made available for opposing clubs and their players to buy at £10.00 per copy (Including postage & packing if necessary). At some stage during 2012 we hope to have most of the Edmonton Rovers matches we have filmed since 1990 listed on this website where they can be purchased using credit or debit cards via PayPal. To order our DVD’s in the meantime (by BACS payments, cheques or cash), please view the Edmonton Rovers DVD Catalogue for instructions.

Highlights of matches from Season 2009-2010 onwards are now showing here on our You Tube channel if you would like to view some of our footage of Edmonton Rovers in action and see an example of our work. If your team are playing Edmonton Rovers and your Club Secretary or Manager supplies Laurence Hughes with your team line-up on the day (i.e. shirt numbers, full names of players and what position they are playing in), then this information will be displayed in the opening titles on the DVD and on You Tube (exactly as they do on 'Match of the Day' and on Sky). Goal Of The Season and Goal Of The Decade clips of Edmonton Rovers players can also be viewed on our You Tube channel and you can find the links to those goals in The Videos section on the Edmonton Rovers F.C. Website.

Please note that Edmonton Rovers (First Team) have not reached a Cup Final since 1985, but in the unlikely event that it ever happens again, as in League matches against them, our opponents will not have to pay a filming, editing & production fee in order to obtain copies of the match DVD. However, we would ask for a minimum order of 5 copies for any Cup Final DVD’s involving Edmonton Rovers, for which we would charge £8.50 each.
