Brentford have rightly made headlines in recent years with their promotion to the Premier League but there is another club in the local area who have progressed up the football pyramid this summer.
SPARTANS YOUTH FC who have played matches in Carvillle Hall Park, Gunnersbury Park and Boston Manor Park since they were formed in 2006 - All of which are a stone's throw from both Griffin Park and The Brentford Community Stadium.
Spartans played in the Middlesex County League in the 15/16 and 16/17 campaigns before joining the Surrey Elite Intermediate League in 2017 which is now known as the Surrey Premier County Football League. The first team have been playing games at Northwood FC for the 2021/22 season which whilst it's not ideal at around 13 miles away from their spiritual home it's the only thing the club can do at present to progress to Step Six of the non-league ladder.
The club were founded in 2006 by Mark Stow who has worked as a scout and in recruitment for Chelsea, Watford, Exeter City, Cardiff City, Charlton Athletic, Colchester United and Blackburn Rovers. They now have a number of teams from youth to the first team.
For the 2022/23 SPARTANS YOUTH will be playing the Combined Counties League Division One alongside Bedfont & Feltham, Hillingdon Borough, FC Deportivo Galicia and Molesey to name a few teams.
I WISH SPARTANS YOUTH FOOTBALL CLUB THE BEST OF LUCK FOR THE FORTHCOMING SEASON.
