Neil Blackburn told us "The Club is only 3 years old and this award reflects the hard work of the 22 coaches, committee members, the players and of course the support of parents, sponsors and Councillors.
" Bideford AFCY will be developing further again next season, to include new qualified coaches, new teams, improved coaching ratios, and a new post 16 Academy Team linked with Bideford AFC Reserves.
The club has vacancies for children in current school year's 1 and 2. Contact Head Coach Pete North on 01237 478840 for more information.
