AFC Totton FOLLOW US ONLINE TWITTER.COM/FOOTYFOCUSMAG AFC Totton FOOTBALL CLUB M any years ago I played for Totton FC and then Totton Athletic FC who amalgamated in 1975 to form AFC Totton so my involvement behind the scenes is over 42 years! I was attracted to the Club due to the potential of achieving higher league football and improving the facilities at the old run down Testwood Park ground. In the event, we sold Testwood Park and moved in 2011 to a brand new stadium on the outskirts of Totton which was built to Conference South standards. At this moment in time our success has been to avoid relegation from the Evostik South & West league. This we managed under our new Manager Louis Langdown and his assistant Adam Wilde. Louis and Adam have introduced a youth policy loaning academy players from AFC Bournemouth, Havant & Waterlooville and Aldershot FC to play alongside our more experienced senior players. 78 Issue 71
