Heyford Athletic

Heyford Athletic currently field two sides in the Northants Saturday Combination League, with the 1st Team in the Premier Division and the Reserve Team in the Reserve Premier Division. The team is based in the village of Nether Heyford, Northamptonshire which is located just off J16 of the M1 motorway.

The club was formed in 1908 and are looking forward to their centenary celebrations which will take place during the 2008/2009 season.

For many years the club played on the village green, but in 1989 moved to a newly developed sports field on the edge of the village and now have arguably one of the finest footballing set ups in the County.

In the past few seasons, the club has expanded considerably with the introduction of Junior Football with teams ranging from Under 9's through to Under 16's.
