Sunderland RCA FC grassroots football

Following last season's success under the stewardship of joint managers Ray Hartley and Glenn Moan, RCA The Barnes would like to announce the unfortunate resignation of both Ray and Glenn. Ray has decided that after a number of years at the helm that he needs a long overdue, and deserved rest, while Glenn, who took up the reins at the start of the season, now has his youngest son, Dom, playing on Sunday mornings and feels it only right that he goes along to support him in The Rusell Foster League.

FA Vase 1st Preliminary Round

Sunderland RCA were in action in the FA VAse against Selby Town of the North West Counties League. After 20 minutes of the game they found themselves 2-1 down and no Selby player had scored.

There have been more than a few changes in the first team squad recently, with comings and goings.

We welcome Phil Naisbett, Craig Tate, Joe Walton and Craig Wilkinson, welcome back Micky Coghlan from his spell down under and say goodbye, thanks and best wishes to Stuart Brightwell, Harrison Davies, Michael Hepplewhite, Richard Hodgson, Matty Hyson and Craig Shields.

Our home league fixture against South Shields, due to be played on Monday, 30 August, has been postponed because of South Shields' FA Cup replay.
