Ruthin Town
FOOTBALL CLUB
Ruthin Town FC is based at The Memorial Playing Fields on Park Road in Denbighshire and
their first team will compete in the FAW Championship North and Mid next season. They
are led by the team of Chair Alan Jones and President Neil Taylor and the club is looking to
progress under their guidance.
Last season they put together a solid league campaign,
compiling a record of thirteen wins, four draws and
thirteen defeats from their thirty matches played. This
saw them finish in 6th position in the league with forty-
three points on the board.
This should provide the club with a good platform
from which to build as they look to the future. As long
as they are able to keep their current group of players
together and can perhaps make one or two quality
additions they should be in with a good chance of a
successful season.
Ruthin Town is not a club to focus solely upon their
senior section and this is reflected by the fact that they
also have a number of youth sides in place. These teams
look to provide young players from the local community
with an opportunity to play the game in a safe and
enjoyable environment whilst helping them to reach
their full potential.
It is important for any club looking to be successful
over a sustained period of time to be able to produce
their own talent, particularly in the current financial
climate and this is an area they appear to have covered.
It will certainly be exciting to see how their youngsters
can progress in the coming years.
In order to help make sure that they enjoy a smooth
transition into the senior game they also run a reserve
side. This allows them to gain experience of adult level
football even if they are not yet considered ready for
“We have been involved with Ruthin town FC, for
just over a year now. Last year we sponsored the 1st
Team, this year we are sponsoring the mini kickers.
My son Hari Jones is playing for the mini kickers and
thoroughly enjoying it, this being his first season
playing for them. We get down each Sunday to watch
the team play. We would like to wish all teams at
Ruthin Town FC all the best for the coming season.”

first team action which can be an important step in the
development process.
Another benefit of having an extra side is that it
allows the first team to benefit from far greater strength
in depth. If they are ever left short on numbers through
injury or suspension they have the option of calling up
replacements with a limited amount of disruption.
There is much to admire about the fine set up that
Ruthin Town currently has in place. Hopefully they will
be able to continue in the same manner for many years
to come.
