T.T.A.F.C HISTORY<br />
Two notable players have been involved with the club, first Andrew York became player<br />
manager in 2007 after captaining Barry Town to a host of trophies in the early 90s and having<br />
European success. Later Cohen Griffith would join the management team, having played 234<br />
games for Cardiff City.<br />
<br />
During this time the club had been mainly mid to lower table, but narrowly failed to gained<br />
promotion in 2014-15, missing out by just two wins to Ammanford.<br />
THE CLUB HAVING GAINED TIER 3 CRITERIA, NOW TAKE THEIR PLACE IN THE ARDAL<br />
SOUTHERN LEAGUE, SOUTH EAST DIVISION UNDER MANAGER GARETH HARBORD.<br />
<br />
Tredegar Town was formed over 40 years ago in 1968 by the late Cliff Bethel, to provide a<br />
recreation for those young men who preferred playing association football to Rugby Union. Cliff<br />
had originally been chairman of Troedrhiwgwair from 1961-65 but formed a new team with the<br />
help of his brother Dai. The team was originally known as the Rhyd Boys Club and was known<br />
throughout Wales for sending players to represent Wales at Schoolboy and Boys Club of Wales<br />
level.<br />
<br />
The clubs first success came in 1982-83, when they won the Gwent Amateur Cup and won the<br />
Gwent Youth Cup in 1988. By this time the club had changed its name to Tredegar Town and<br />
moved on to senior level plying their trade in the North Gwent League Division 1, rising to a<br />
Premier Division place. With the introduction of the pyramid system, Tredegar gained a place in<br />
the more challenging Gwent County League in 1990-91 and played their games at the Recreation<br />
ground.<br />
<br />
The team steadily gained credibility throughout the 90s winning promotion from Division 3<br />
and winning the Division 2 title in 1992-93. Life in Division 1 was short-lived, but after relegation<br />
the club bounced instantly back with the Division 2 title again in 1994-95, while the Gwent County<br />
Motors Cup was won in 1997.<br />
<br />
In 1997-98 Tredegar won the Gwent County Division 1 title and were successful in applying for<br />
membership to the Welsh Football League. The club found instant success at this level, finishing<br />
as runners up to Caerleon in its debut season in Welsh League Division 3, winning 24 and draws 4<br />
out of 32 league games with a mammoth 101 goals scored. The club also had its best success in<br />
the Welsh Cup, reaching the last 32 before falling to Llanelli (2-1) after wins over Pontlottyn<br />
Blast Furnace (3-0) and Taffs Well (2-1). The club was managed during this success by Riley<br />
Gray who stepped down in 2002 but would go on to become club Secretary until 2018.<br />
<br />
Tredegar would stay in Division 2 for 11 seasons, their best finish being in 2004-05 when they<br />
just missed out on promotion by 3 points to Bryntirion Athletic. This season had seen the club<br />
move from the Recreation Ground where they had played for 36 years to a purpose-built ground<br />
at Tredegar Leisure Centre.<br />
<br />
However, in 2009-10 the club suffered relegation to Division 3 along with Maesteg Park and<br />
Porthcawl Town. This is where the club would stay until the end of 2018-19 when pyramid<br />
restructuring saw them play the last ever Welsh League season in Division 2, finishing in 10th<br />
position on a points per game average due to the pandemic. During this time the club had been<br />
mainly mid to lower table, but narrowly failed to gained promotion in 2014-15, missing out to<br />
Ammanford.
