DURSLEY Town AFC has for a long and proud history of providing football for both male and female youth in our area.

Unfortunately over the last few years although the girl's youth teams have prospered, the boy's teams have petered out and we find ourselves in a position with no boy's age group teams.

This is particularly sad as many of the stalwarts of the club that we rely on so much these days came through our youth system themselves.

We are able to provide a fantastic environment for young footballers with good pitches, good changing facilities and all the required equipment.

In addition the town council is very supportive of youth sport and does not charge for pitch rental for youth matches.

With this in mind we are striving to begin providing boys age group football again, probably starting in 2015/16, although we could organise friendlies well before this time.

We would like to hear from anyone who has an interest in helping to run a team or from parents who have boys who would like to represent Dursley Town AFC, and maybe in time become stalwarts of the club themselves.
