About Hastings United Football Club

Hastings United Football Club is a well-established semi-professional club based in Hastings, East Sussex, formerly known as Hastings Town. Competing in the Isthmian League South East Division, the Club has played its home matches at the historic The Pilot Field since 1985.

Alongside league football, Hastings United regularly competes in national competitions including the FA Cup and the FA Trophy, as well as a range of county and regional cups.

The Club places strong emphasis on player development, operating Under-18 and Under-23 Development Squads that provide a clear pathway for aspiring young footballers. In addition, Hastings United has expanded its inclusive and community-focused programmes, supporting a Women’s First Team, an Inclusive & Disability Team, and a Walking Football Team.

In January 2024, this commitment to excellence was recognised when the Club achieved the prestigious 3 Star FA Accreditation from The Football Association – an award held by only around 8% of football clubs in England at the time.

Wave Community Bank Partnership

Wave Community Bank is proud to partner with Hastings United FC to offer Chorus, a comprehensive Workplace Savings Scheme designed to bolster the financial wellbeing of their employees. 

Hastings United FC offer the Chorus Workplace Savings Scheme with Wave Community Bank for their staff. Not only are they helping to improve the financial wellbeing of their employees, by making saving through payroll simple, but also by making it possible for their staff to save money on the cost of borrowing, as loans repaid through payroll benefit from cheaper interest rates. This partnership reflects our shared commitment to supporting the local community and fostering holistic financial health amongst staff. 

The Hastings United FC joined the Workplace Savings Scheme in December 2025 to help their staff access affordable loans and save via their payroll.

Affordable loan rates with Chorus

We offer great loan rates for employees repaying loans through Chorus.

Also our loans all have a savings element to the repayments so anyone repaying a loan is also creating a savings pot that they can access when the loan has been repaid. We foster a responsible attitude to credit and only lend to loan applicants that can afford to meet the repayments.

Regular Savings

You can set up regular savings into your account straight from your wages by completing a payroll deduction mandate.  You can reach your savings goals with the Wave Save account which helps you to set goals and targets for your savings, all through the Wave Community Bank app and online banking facility.
