Who are Margam Stags?

Margam Youth Centre Inclusion Stags were founded in 2019 by our current Chairman and Head Coach John Heycock.

We are affiliated to The Football Association of Wales, and are a member team of Margam Youth Centre Football Club, based at The Ray Davies Arena in Margam, Port Talbot.

The team was set up to:

Provide a fun environment for boys and girls with disabilities and their siblings to receive football coaching as well as other activities that are sadly lacking in the Neath and Port Talbot area

Stimulate both physically and mentally with interesting and varied coaching methods and games

Offer a physical benefit to all involved whatever their level of disability and have fun times with their siblings

Enhance the friendship circle of all children and parents

Promote a sense of pride in the involvement with the club

Instil self-confidence both socially and within the framework of the club itself

Provide a support network for all our parents

We currently have over 60 registered players aged 4-16 years old, of varying ability.

Two sessions are held every Saturday morning from 9.30am to 10.30am & 10.45am to 11.45am.

Sessions are £2.50 each week or £10 per calendar month. However, whilst we ask for these Voluntary Contributions to support the team and wider club, we also understand that not all families are able to contribute all the time. As such, consideration is given to participation over contribution.

Sessions are vibrant, active, fun and have already made a great social impact with both youngsters and parents alike. Margam YC Stags Inclusion Football have refreshments available including tea, coffee, bacon rolls, and this alone offers a respite to parents, as well as training being a physically challenging but fun environment for the children.
