Beveree Stadium

Beveree Stadium

Beveree Stadium is home to Hampton and Richmond Borough F.C., sometimes referred to as the 'M.E.M. Stadium, Beveree' due to a sponsorship deal. It is situated in Beaver Close, off Station Road in the heart of Hampton village. It has a total capacity of 3,000, with roughly 300 of this being seated and 900 in covered terracing. On 11th October 2005, that capacity was tested with a record crowd of 2,520 turning out for an Isthmian League match between Hampton & Richmond Borough and AFC Wimbledon. The match ended in a 2-1 victory for the home side.

The Beveree, which can be shortened to 'the Bev', has been the home of the club since 1959. It is also the home of other affiliated clubs such as Hampton & Richmond Borough Women F.C., Hampton Under 18s, Chelsea Ladies FC before May 2006; and before its cancellation in 2004, the Hampton & Richmond Borough reserve team.

Not just a football ground, the Beveree is also used for social events. The clubhouse is available for hire, and the club's ground has been used as a polling station for all local, general and European elections for a long time.

In June 2006, work began on transforming the clubhouse and changing rooms at the Beveree into a more modern facility. Work was completed by the end of Summer, and the new look clubhouse was officially opened by FA Chief Executive, Brian Barwick, on 26th August 2006. The new facility has a pool table, flat screen TV's and is WiFi enabled.
