Club History
Founded in 1959, Catholic United has a long history of football in
Southend-on-Sea. Originally known in the 30's as Southend Catholic and then
later as Catholic Athletic. Although the words Athletic and Southend have been
dropped, what has remained firm and steadfast is the name Catholic and with it
the reputation for all that is good in the game.
Back in the 60's Celtic helped Catholic United by supplying a Celtic Kit when the
Club reached the Charity Cup Final. In honour of Celtics generosity for
supplying what became a winning Cup Final Kit it is now written into the Club's
constitution that our club colours will always be the world famous green and
white hoops.
