Club badge

Martin Cutler, a playing member, designed the club badge in the mid-70s. The design was submitted to and reviewed by the committee of the College of Arms and so any replica should adhere strictly to the original registered description. Emblems on the club badge embody the club's strong local and historical links with Chobham:
