One of the oldest junior clubs in Scotland is fully focused on becoming a fully fledged community club.
Having been a Junior club since its foundation in 1878, Arniston Rangers FC is one of many clubs that last year moved to senior football by joining the East of Scotland Football League.
The ‘Gers’ are taking big steps towards doing more for their community by announcing that from next season they will be running a further u20’s team, giving more youth talent that chance to progress and play a high level of football. Furthermore, since the new management team arrived earlier this season they have made a point of bring through more of the youth players to get experience with the first team squad.
Based out of Newbyres Park in Gorebridge, Arniston currently has a massive focus on improving their youth set up in order to bring players through, Arniston Rangers Youth Football Club (ARYFC) currently has in the region of 260 kids playing for them between the ages of 5 and 19 and are looking to expand on this in order to have youth teams both male and female right through the ages groups.
Currently sat 10th in the league, ‘The Gers’ will be looking to continue to improve and hopefully improve on that position next year with a full season under the new management set up.
From everyone here at ClimbingTheLadder, we just want to wish all the best to Arniston for the rest of this season and the future.
