Llandegfan Antelope FC is a football team playing in the Anglesey League (part of the Welsh football league system).

History[edit]

CPD Llandegfan FC[edit]

A football team from Llandegfan was recorded as early as the first ever recorded Anglesey League table of the 1897/98 season[1]. The Club spent two seasons in the Bangor and District league (1932/33 & 1933/34)[2] before returning to the Anglesey League.

Like most clubs, they have not been consistent members, in that there have been seasons where they were unable to enter a team, but in the main they have been a predominant member of the Anglesey League. Llandegfan failed to enter a team during the 2010/11 season.

Antelope FC[edit]

Antelope FC was set up as a Sunday League Football Club in June 2010 by Iwan Lloyd Ellis and Jamie Davies, with funding from Steve Winrow. The Club initially struggled to find a pitch with several applications turned down before coming to an agreement to share with Anglesey League side Pentraeth.[3]

Antelope FC entered the North Gwynedd and Anglesey Sunday League for the first time in the 2010-11 season and finished in 9th position. Their second season was more successful as they were crowned Champions.

For the 2012/13 season, Antelope FC left their Pentraeth home and merged with CPD Llandegfan, who had withdrawn from the League following the 2010-11 season, to become Llandegfan Antelope FC and enter the Anglesey League.

Following the merger of the two clubs, Llandegfan Antelope FC are in their inaugural season competing in the Anglesey League.
