2nd Team : Page Croft Finalist 2003

                               2nd team : Division 3 Winners  88'89

Originally called Bournemoth Post Office, formed in 1952 when all players were employed by the post office. The club

changed its name to Civil Service in 1992 and then became Suttoners FC in 2002. In 1950 a few postmen got together

for a friendly kickabout at the Civil service club and after playing friendley matches for a while it was decided to constitute

a proper club with full committee. An Application to join the Bourenmouth FA was accepted and we have been in the 

league ever since. Due to shift work it was not always possible to field the best side and for a number of years we stayed

in the lower divisions of the league. Meetings were held and it was decided to bring in players from outside the Post office.

This brought its rewards and for the past 20 years or so the 1st XI have been in Division 1 of the B.F.A. They have won

the Division 1 title 6 times and have been runners up on no less than 8 occasions. They have won the Bournemouth 

SeniorCup 3 times ,the Pickford cup 4 times and the Challange cup once.

A reserve team was formed in the 80's starting in division 5. In 1985 they finished runners up and promoted to Div 4. 

In 1987 they again finished as runners up and promoted to Div 3. In 1988 they won the Div 3 title and finished runners up

in Div 2 in the 1991/92 but could not be promoted due to having a team already in Div 1. Unfortunately they were relegated

to Div 3 in 94/95 but bounced back again in 1996/97. After relegation in 2001 they again returned to Div 2 in 2003 where

they reached the Final of the Page Croft Cup.

Over the years a number of players in the club have played representative football for the B.F.A.

The President, Bill Underwood, Treasurer, Ted Bosisto, and Chairman Jim Northover  have all received honours 

from theHampshire FA and Bournemouth FA for services to local football.
