 Members
of the Southern League Western Division, Clevedon Town have
been resident at the Hand Stadium since 1991, and celebrated
their Centenary year in 1998.
Since rising from the Amateur Leagues some 20 years ago, the
club - nicknamed "The Seasiders" - gained steady
promotion over the years, culminating in two seasons in the
DML Premier Division recently.
2003/4 saw Clevedon back in the Western Division, finishing
mid-table after considerable squad re-building over the previous
twelve months. With the nucleus of an exciting young squad
for 2004/5, new manager Kevin Hodges will be hoping for a
promotion battle in the coming season.
