Sandhurst Devels Football Club

Sandhurst Development FC was set up by Sandhurst Town in 2001 with the intention of progressing younger players from local boys clubs into adult football. After three years of success the "Sandhurst Devels" were established as an independent organisation in 2004. Since then the club has grown and progressed well and at the start of the 2008/09 season took the step to move both teams into the well publicized Reading Leagues. These leagues are fully covered by the Reading Evening Post and Reading Chronicle newspapers. The Devels play their home games at the Sandhurst Recreation Ground on Saturday afternoons. Facilities at the rec include their own designated changing rooms and showers and a bar. The Devels also have access to 2 full sized adult football pitches. Training sessions in the winter are done at Sandhurst School on Tuesday nights (8-10pm) and in the summer train back at the rec on Tuesdays and Thursdays (6.30-8.30pm). The aim of the Sandhurst Devels FC is to encourage younger players from youth football and progress them into senior football and help them establish as promising young footballers. The Devels currently has over 40 players signed on ranging from just 17 to 30. About 95% of the players signed on have played for Sandhurst Town Boys FC since they were under 8s, all the way through. The team also includes 8 ex-club captains too.
