Bath and District League - History

History

The Bath and District Football League was founded in 1901 when it started with a Saturday Division. It has expanded since that time with the first Sunday Division being formed in 1971 and the Indoor Five Aside League starting in 1978.

The Bath and District Football League is unique in that it operates Saturday, Sunday and Indoor Five Aside Divisions under the same management umbrella. The B&DFL operates within a 12 mile radius of Bath and whilst the majority of its clubs are based in Bath there are teams from Keynsham and outer suburbs of Bristol as well as some of the smaller outlying villages around Bath.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    ... the history of the race, from infancy through its stages of barbarism, heathenism, civilization, and Christianity, is a process of suffering, as the lower principles of humanity are gradually subjected to the higher.
    Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)

    In history as in human life, regret does not bring back a lost moment and a thousand years will not recover something lost in a single hour.
    Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    Most events recorded in history are more remarkable than important, like eclipses of the sun and moon, by which all are attracted, but whose effects no one takes the trouble to calculate.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
