How We Began
12 Feb 2007

Riverfield F.C. was founded on the 1st of May 2006 by two F.A. coaches, Alan Jones and Andy Plane. They had been coaching a group of up to 20 mixed ability under 9 children boys at one of the local primary schools for the previous two years.
When they realised that at the end of their current academic year, a lot of the boys would be moving up to different middle schools, some with no provisions for playing in a school team, they decided to set up their own club where the children would be guaranteed the opportunity to play in an organised and safe way, at least once a week.
