Lydney Town 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. Coaching staff involved with this part of the club are confident that they’ve a number of players currently involved with the potential for a bright future in the game. In order to help make sure that these players enjoy a smooth transition into the senior game they also run additional sides. This allows them to gain experience of adult level football even if they are not yet considered ready for first team action which can be an important part of the development process. Another benefit of having extra sides is that it allows the first XI to benefit from far greater strength in depth. If they are ever left short on numbers through injury or work commitments 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 Lydney Town AFC currently has in place and this is thanks to all of the hard work that goes into the club. If they continue in the same manner then they should be able to look forwards to a bright and successful future for many years to come. Everyone at Football Focus Magazine would like to take this opportunity to wish them the best of luck for the season ahead.
