Some  Astounding  Facts about Corinthian-Casuals:

​* Corinthians were founded in 1882 by the Football Association to develop a club capable of defeating Scotland.  By 1890, 52 of the 88 caps awarded against Scotland went to Corinthian players.

* In1894 and 1895, Corinthians fielded the full England side twice… the only club to ever manage this feat. To this day, no other club has provided more players (110 full international caps plus a further 60 amateur international caps) for the England National team!

* It’s acknowledged that England wear white shirts and navy shorts in homage to the Corinthian strip. It’s also a fact that Real Madrid, inspired by Corinthians, adopted their white strip.

* However, Corinthian’s greatest contribution to the game was their footballing missionary work; popularising the beautiful game by touring across Europe, South Africa, USA, Canada and South America.

* It was on a tour to Brazil in 1910 which inspired locals to found their own team in Corinthian’s honour… that club has since gone on to be the largest in South America and the only team to win the FIFA World Club Championship twice (defeating Chelsea in 2011).

* The Corinthians were so good, they regularly defeated league and FA Cup winning opponents. In fact, in 1904, they defeated Manchester United 11-3 – their heaviest defeat to this day. The centenary of that match was played in 2004 with United claiming a 3-1 victory.

* In 1939, Corinthians merged with another famous amateur club, The Casuals to become the club that, to this day, resides in Tolworth.

* Corinthian-Casuals FC has called the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames home for over 30 years but our connection to the borough actually dates back 95 years to 1925 when The Casuals began a 14 year tenancy at Kingstonian's old Richmond Rd ground.

* Corinthian-Casuals are the highest ranked fully amateur team in Senior football. We maintain our original ethos of fair play and good sportsmanship across all levels of football.


* In a poll, Corinthians Paulista fans in Brazil voted for Casuals to be the team they’d most like to see open their new Corinthians Arena… the venue for the opening game in the 2014 World Cup.
