Axbridge Saxon F.C.

History
The Club was founded in 1997 when a group of dads were invited by Harry Mottram to have a kick around. This was followed by the starting of a mini football side in September 1999. Since then the Club has grown rapidly to become probably the largest single pursuit group in Axbridge.

Present Format
The Club has a veterans (over 30's) and Juniors Section (Under 18's) and a central committee consisting of a Club President, Club Treasurer, Club Secretary plus the Chairmen of the two sections.

This year the Club achieved the coveted Charter Standard Status from the Football Association. This entailed all coaches and managers passing examinations on football skills, first aid and for the Junior Section - Child protection training.

Veterans Section
Consists of about 40 regular members of the older fraternity. They train every Friday at King Alfred's School in the winter and Axbridge Furlong in the summer. They compete in the Bristol Casuals League second division. Each summer they have a tour abroad, which this year is destined for Budapest. Also this year a contingent will attend Houlgate for a soccer weekend.

Junior Section
Teams play in year groups from under 7 to under 16 (age at 30th August).
