Radyr Rangers Football Club provides community football to Radyr and Morganstown, and the surrounding areas. Since its inception, the club has grown year on year, successfully providing football to over 500 children, young people and adults and engaging them in fun, healthy, and purposeful activities.
The club’s evolution and success are rooted in the strong foundations laid by its founders and the commitment and passion of all coaches and committee members, past and present.
How does my child join Radyr Rangers?
Children can join Radyr Rangers at any time; our Development Squad for children in Reception and Year 1 meets every Sunday morning at The Mound Field, Morganstown. Under-7s through to Youth football train on weekday evenings, with training moving to the astroturf at Radyr Comprehensive School during the winter months.
If your child wishes to join, please email us or fill in the online contact form, and we’ll put you in touch with a coach or team admin from the appropriate age group to get you started.
Do you have adult teams?
Yes, we have senior and vets teams. To find out more, email us or fill in the online contact form.
Can I coach or help with Radyr Rangers?
Radyr Rangers is run entirely by volunteers; teams will always need help with administration (registering the children, collecting subs, booking the end-of-season bash), fundraising, and, if you’re interested in coaching, then let one of the coaches in your child’s age group know.
If you are a parent taking your child to the Reception age group with the Development Squad, then we are always looking for mums and dads to come together to organise and coach that year group.
Any parent who gets involved will need to be DBS checked, which the club will organise, and each year group must have a registered First Aider.
Once you enter the Under-7s age group and above, you will be required to have obtained the FAW Football Leader’s Level 1 coaching award if you intend to coach, and only coaches with this qualification will be allowed pitch-side during matches; again, the club will pay for you to attend the course and obtain the qualification. So if you think the dug-out is for you, or if you just want to make a difference in getting kids active, then here’s your opportunity!
There’s also a great social scene amongst the coaches, both within and between age groups, including 5-a-side get-togethers.
