About Us / Amdanom ni
Clwb Pêl-droed Clydach Football Club was established in 2021 through the merger of two long-standing Clydach clubs – FC Clydach and Clydach Cricket Football Club.
While previously successful, both clubs realised that there would be much to be gained from uniting and pooling resources. Through forming one club, the village of Clydach and the surrounding area now has a club that provides opportunities for teams from the age of 5 through to senior teams, for boys and girls. In our first season, the club secured Platinum FAW Club Accreditation and experienced a great deal of success at junior and senior levels, including the promotion of our men’s first team to the West Wales Premier League and winning the 2021-22 Premier Division Cup.
Through the hard work of over 60 coaches, officers and volunteers, the following successes were gained in our second seaon, 2022-23:
- First team finished 6th in West Wales Premier League
- Second team maintained their place in Neath League Division 1
- Third team became league champions winning Neath League Division 3
- Fourth team finished a creditable 5th in Neath League Division 3
- Youth Team completed the season finishing in 4th place.
- The minis and junior section has over 350 members including over 110 girls.
- We have around 30 youth players and 86 registered senior players,
- We were also appointed a provider of the FAW Huddle Programme to encourage girls into football.
- We've maintained our Platinum club accreditation from the FAW for 2023-24.
Clwb Pêl-droed Clydach Football Club’s home ground is Parc Coed Gwilym where we have use of a ground and facilities that satisfy the criteria for playing in the West Wales Premier League. Our clubhouse is the Clydach Cricket Club at Waverley Park.
The club is affiliated to the Football Association of Wales [FAW] and the West Wales Football Association [WWFA].
We welcome the support of parents, relatives or friends who may be able to assist us in running and improving our club. All our coaches give up their own time to run training sessions and to coach teams at games on the weekend. Any help that is available for them or the club is always appreciated. If you wish to become involved or can assist the club in any way, please contact the club Secretary.
