FOOTBALL CLUB
B
ased on Afoneitha Road in
Wrexham, Penycae FC’s first
team currently competes in
the Welsh National League (Wrexham
Area) Premier Division. They are led
by First Team Manager Ian Andrews
and are looking to progress under his
guidance.
So far this season it would be fair to say
that they have not perhaps got off to the
start that they would have liked, having
put together a record of two wins and five
defeats from their seven matches. This has
left them sitting in the bottom half of the
table with six points on the board.
There is still plenty of time to turn things
around however and a good run of results
would see them quickly climb the table. As
long as they can keep their current group
of players together and perhaps make one
or two quality additions they should be in
with a good chance of a successful season.
Penycae is not a club to focus solely upon
their senior section and this is reflected by
the fact that they also have a fine youth set
up. This part of the club looks to provide
youngsters from the local area 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 to
be able to produce
their own talent
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 make sure 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 first team
action which can be a vital 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
short on numbers
through injury or
suspension
they
have the option
of
calling
up
replacements with
a limited amount
of disruption.
Although Penycae
FC would have liked
a couple more wins on
the board at this point in
the season their set up behind
the scenes is superb. If they continue
in the same manner improved results on
the field are sure to follow.
