Newington Youth Club F.C.
Newington Youth Football Club (also known as Newington Youth Club, Newington Y.C. or simply Newington) is an intermediate-level Northern Irish football club playing in IFA Championship 2. The club originates in the Newington area of Belfast, although has played its home matches in recent years in Antrim and Larne. In 2008, the club became involved in a partnership with IFA Premiership club Crusaders, with a view to securing funding for a new, shared ground in north Belfast. As part of the arrangement, Newington used Crusaders’ current ground Seaview for home matches in 2008–09, marking a return to home matches in the club's native north Belfast. For the 2012–13 season, the club's first season in the IFA Championship, Seaview will be the home venue once again.

Famous quotes containing the words youth and/or club:
“If youth is the season of hope, it is often so only in the sense that our elders are hopeful about us; for no age is so apt as youth to think its emotions, partings, and resolves are the last of their kind. Each crisis seems final, simply because it is new.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“I spoke at a woman’s club in Philadelphia yesterday and a young lady said to me afterwards, “Well, that sounds very nice, but don’t you think it is better to be the power behind the throne?” I answered that I had not had much experience with thrones, but a woman who has been on a throne, and who is now behind it, seems to prefer to be on the throne.”
—Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)
