The Club

Aloysius Football Club (AFC) was formed in 2021 in response to the demand for Junior to Youth football at Hurst Avenue Sports Ground, home of our Educational and Senior Football colleagues St Aloysius’ College and Old Aloysians.

The Trustees and staff at AFC aim to link all local schools and the community to offer quality football coaching in age groups U6-U18 for both Girls and Boys.
Our Football Academy will enter teams into appropriate local leagues and provide a pathway through all age groups and onto our U18-U23 Development Squad and ultimately Senior football.

Hurst Avenue can become your football home for years to come….
