The partnership between Ards FC and Ards Youth was forged during summer 2005 and brought together the borough's only senior football club with the most successful youth set-up in the area.

Mirroring a shift in focus at Ards FC towards the nurturing of young, local players, officials at Ards Youth sought to associate themselves and their large stable of players with the Ards FC name and the clubs officially tied up. In essence Ards Youth continue to operate the structures they previously had in place but now do so in Ards FC colours.

Here we endeavour to cover as many aspects of the Ards Youth set-up as possible, meanwhile for latest results and fixtures we point you in the direction of the inclusive Ards Youth website at
