📌𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐂𝐥𝐮𝐛 𝐔𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞📌

Sadly, after spending forty-nine seasons at the Cribbs Sports & Social Club in Henbury, we will not be playing football there next season. Our landlord, Redmaids’ High School GDST, served a 12 month notice of lease cessation that ends on 30 April 2026. They kindly offered we could continue to use the football pitches and clubhouse by hiring the facilities, which we were grateful for the opportunity.

Understandably, Redmaids want to upgrade and modernise the site for the benefit of their students. Up to six facility improvement projects are being considered by the School and their parent Trust. As that preparatory work progressed, it became obvious that access to the football pitches would be impacted for season 2026/27 and possibly into 2027/28 too. At a recent meeting on Friday 27 February, Redmaids told us the bad news that pitches wouldn't be available for season 2026/27 at least. They did say we will be welcomed back as hirers, when their development projects are finalised.

We, as a committee, are seeking to find solutions so that ALL of our teams can continue to play football in the local area, including our affiliated junior section, Shire Colts. We appreciate parents will be disappointed that the pathway for their children has been impacted but the committee are committed in trying to re-establish that pathway.

We are being advised and supported by Gloucestershire Football Association, for which we really appreciate their help.

The club has made great memories in BS10 with great people, progressing from the Bristol & Avon League when we arrived, through the Avon Premier Combination, into the national non-league system via the Gloucestershire County League, the Western League, onto the Hellenic League title and the Southern League.

Football clubs are not about bricks and mortar; they are founded on the people within them. Cumulatively, our club officials have over one hundred and fifty years with the club and we hope for many more, as we continue to develop the next generation of Cribbs footballers.

Thank you all for your support and please watch here for updates on our progress.
