History
Ynysgerwyn Football Club was founded in 1981 by members of the Town's cricket club as a way for the players to stay fit when the cricket season ended. The club entered the amateur Neath & District League.[1] The club achieved promotion in 1985 and by the early 1990s had reached the First Division. In the 1991–92 season, Ynysgerwyn finished First Division champions.[1]
The team remained in the top tiers of the Neath & District League, achieving a third placed finished in 2014. Two years later, the club won promotion to the Welsh Football League during the 2015–16 season for the first time in its history,[1][2] defeating Team Swansea in a play-off match in May 2016 having finished as runners-up.[3] The side also won the Neath & District League Cup for the first time in its history in the same season.[1]
Wales International defender Ben Davies was named club president in the 2010s.[4] Davies had previously played cricket for the club as a teenager.[5]
