RVJFC Club History:

Established: January 2003

President: Stephen Haworth

Head Coaches: Austin Haworth, Phillip White, Michael Taylor and Daniel Belcher. {Qualified Level 2 Coach}

The original Rossendale Valley JFC had 3 independent club members (Under 15`s, U14`s & U13`s) run by three individuals. This meant a gap was being created in the continuality of the Club therefore we thought it would be a good idea to keep all the teams under one �Umbrella� and to start again at Under 9`s level.
As the only qualified coach available at the time Stephen Haworth {SH} took on the job.

Updated - June 2009
The club has:
1: Eleven teams representing RVJFC in the local leagues: three teams in the Accrington & District League / two u9`s, u8s, u7s team in the Blackburn Sunday leagues + one u14`s, u12`s and two u10s, 11`s team in the North Bury league.

Important
As from May 2006 our youth teams {16+} are now amalgamated with Oswaldtwistle St Mary�s FC youth and senior teams. We will be under the banner of Oswaldtwistle St Mary�s FC who have a 1st team and Reserve team {Manager - Steve Haworth} playing in the East Lancashire league and an "A Team" side in the Accrington Combination league. This will give all the players from both Rossendale Valley JFC, Haslingden JFC and Oswaldtwistle JFC to continue playing competitive football after they are too old for the junior section.
RVJFC/OSMFC under 17s team 2006/07 came 3rd in 2004/05 and then finished 2nd in 2005/06 scoring 96 goals for the season but finally finished top of the league in 2006/07 and CUP winners. Good luck lads in your future. "The GAFFER"
