WELSH CLUBS IN EUROPE PART SEVEN - BARRY TOWN/BARRY TOWN UNITED

Barry Town were members of the group of clubs who were barred from competing in the English pyramid following the creation of the League of Wales in 1992 - The first team were forced into exile at Worcester City adopting the name of Barri AFC but performed a u-turn and were accepted into the Welsh League Division One (then step two) for the 1993/94 campaign.

They won the Welsh Cup, for the first time since 1955, in 1994 beating Cardiff City in front of 16,000 people at the national stadium which saw them qualify for the Cup Winner's Cup. 

There then followed a period of dominance for the club winning the League of Wales title in 1996, 97, 98, 99, 2001, 02 and 2003 before a off the field financial problems in the summer of 2003 saw a whole new squad recruited that were drawn from a club in the South Wales Amateur League. The club were relegated at the end of the 03/04 season and further problems with the rent and rates of their historic Jenner Park stadium saw the club move away to ground share with Treforest from January 2005 to May 2006. In May 2013 the club withdrew form the Welsh Football League but loyal fans had been working very hard off the pitch to keep the name of the club alive and BARRY TOWN UNITED entered the Welsh Football League for the 2013/14 season playing in Division Three. Three promotions saw the club re-enter the top division of the Welsh game in 2017! 

A third placed finish in 2018/19 saw then re-enter European Competition for the 19/20 campaign in the UEFA Cup.
