The season for Hampstead Town (now Hendon) began with a friendly at Chelmsford against Hoffman's Athletic, and after a narrow defeat at Barking in the London League, the first home match saw the opening of our new ground at Childs Hill, Cricklewood. The team celebrated in style as newcomer O.F. Neale hit a hat-trick, with Kilburn being thrashed 5-1 in the London League. The club's 'new' ground is pictured below, the picture being believed to be the only surviving one of the Avenue Ground. It was donated to the club by Richard Blackmore. Both of his grandparents were supporters, and Sidney Blackmore was a committee member.

The weather for the match was ideal, and a large crowd witnessed an interesting game in the London League. A.H. Parker made a succesful re-appearance at right half, after his injuries recieved at the back end of the previous season, and another local player, wearing the club colours for the first time, was O.F. Neale who marked his debut with a hat-trick. The Kilburn defence was in a tangle and the Town lead by three goals within the opening twenty minutes. Kilburn improved, but Matthews, in the Town goal, was only beaten once. The second half was interesting, but the Town always had the game in hand, and added further goals. Garlick and Summer played well and the latter was unlucky not to get on the scoresheet. Missing from the Hampstead line-up was their captian, W.J. Denham, and vice-captian, E.L. Hudson, and the result was therefore the more meritorious. It was a good win ahead of the following weeks English Cup (F.A. Cup) visit to Maidenhead.

On Successive Saturdays, Hampstead were involved in all major cup competitions, but their debut appearances in the F.A. Cup, F.A. Amateur Cup and London Senior Cup unfortunately resulted in defeats against Maidenhead, Luton Albion and Page Green Old Boys respectively. H.D. Prides hat-trick against Polytechnic saw Hampstead through in the Middlesex Charity Cup, and seven of the next ten league games were won up to the turn of the year, putting the club in strong positions in both the London and Middlesex Leagues.

Highlights of the season included a 6-0 London League hiding of Deptford Invicta, in which inside-left O. Summer notched 3 goals, and a 5-1 success against Barnet & Alston in the London League, where Summer added two more. The first Saturday in January saw a Middlesex Senior Cup exit agianst the 2nd Battalion Grenadier Guards, but a run was maintained in the other County Cup, and the Town reached the Final of the Middlesex Charity Cup, going down 2-1 to Uxbridge at neutral Staines, after taking a second half lead through Sumner. Meanwhile the League form had been excellent, and consistant centre forward H.J. Pennifer hit hat-tricks in the Middlesex League against Walthamstow Grange and Page Green Old Boys, he finishing the season with over 20 goals as the clubs leading goalscorer. Sumner also got into double figures as did G.T. Merchant.

During a heavy schedule of league games in late April saw the club play six times in eleven days,, On 26th April 1913, Hampstead Town met Wood Green Town in the London League, Division One at the Avenue Ground, and defeated them by 2 goals to nil (Willeseden Chronicle 02/05/13), both goals being scored by H.J. Pennifer. Immediately following this match, the 2nd XI entertained Christchurch, Hampstead in a friendly encounter. Christchurch put up a splendid fight, thier goalkeeper giving a particularly good display, but the experience and better combination of the home team produced the inevitable result, the Town juniors winning a good sporting game by two goals to nil.

However, in spite of this fixture pile-up, the club clinched the Middlesex League Premier Division although Hampstead Town were pipped for the London League title by Bronze Athletic after losing a crucial home fixture to them in the middle of a congested spell of games. The strong reserve team picked up the Finchley League Division One title ahead of Friern Barnet (see table below), an overall excellent finish to the 1912/13 season for Hampstead Town Football Club.

The annual club supper was held later in the evening at the Cricklewood Tavern, with over Sixty members and their friends being present. Mr Charles Farrer, the President, occupied the chair, and in proposing the toast of "the Club", complimented the players and officials on the excellent results they had achieved during the season. Mr C.E. Timms, the club's chairman, in responding, attributed this success to the splendid spirit of comradeship existing between the players, the excellent work of the committee, and more especially to the untiring energy and enthusiasm of the Honouary Secretary, Mr Walter J. Styles. These remarks were endorsed by loud cheering and the toasting of the Honourary secretary with musical honours.

An excellent musical programme was provided, and the evening was concluded with the singing of "Auld Lang Syne", with the pleasurable anticipation for next season.
