Hopes were high after recruiting a number of quality players and pre season performances being very encouraging. Riding high for most of the season, Carshalton slipped down the table following an injury to keeper Reg Schofield. Fortunately his return in April coincided with the collection of valuable points and the side finished 9th.

By the summer of 1930, no progress had been made on securing a tender for renovating the farm buildings which adjoined the ground, due to a lack of finance. Another major concern at this time was the diminutive dimensions of the first team pitch, which measured only 68 yards wide. At the end of 1931 the pitch was widened by 12 yards and lengthened by several yards and at last the Club had a suitable stage to compete with its illustrious adversaries. Two pitches were secured in Beddington Park for the lower teams to play next to the main pitches. As in previous seasons, the annual Club Dance continued to be a huge success with over 400 in attendance and over 800 enquiries for tickets!
