PRESENTATION - Ton-Pentre and Gelli Boys & Girls’ Club held a very successful annual presentation evening at the Ton-Pentre Football Club on Friday 12th May 2005. Over 250 adults and young people attended the event. Player of the year winners were:

  • Under 9 ‘A’ team  -  Cory Shepherd,             

  • Under 9 ‘B’ team  -  Jacob Ovendale,

  • Under 11 ‘A’ team  -  Gemma Davies,

  • Under 11 ‘B’ team  -  Alicia Davies,     

  • Under 13’s - Josh Lloyd,  

  • Under 15’s - Callum Hughes

The Club also runs under 17 and under 19 teams. All of our teams acquitted themselves well in their respective leagues. As well as celebrating the Club’s football success, the evening raised over £1,000 for club funds. 

An auction was held for a Football signed by the current Cardiff City squad and a Liverpool F.C. shirt autographed by Ian Rush, also prizes given by local businesses were raffled, our thanks to all who donated. The evening concluded with a disco.

Thanks to the management committee, football managers and club volunteers for their commitment over the season and, of course, to our players and club members, without who we wouldn’t have anything to celebrate.

As always, the club, which is open on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings, needs additional volunteers.

If you could give up a couple of hours per week to help us out, call in at the club, which is located off Dinam Park Avenue, during the evening and ask for Kevin (club leader), or alternatively, during the day ring Dean on 01443 425894 for further information.
