Club history
The clubs origins date back to the 1899/1900 season, playing under the name “All Whites”. The team subsequently changed their name in 1908 to “Nanty Stars”, and again to “Nantyffyllon Juniors RFC” in 1932.

In 1963, a new field and clubhouse was opened in Blosse Street, named for Mr Lynch Blosse, from who the land for the original field was acquired.

In 2007, an original feasibility study was conducted to assess the need for a new facility. The project was shelved for a number of years, but in the autumn of 2013, ground was broken on a new clubhouse and field redesign. The site was officially opened in a ceremony on Saturday 6 October. The official opening was MC’d by Club Patron JJ Williams and officially opened by Dennis Gethin.

The new facility contains a function room, restaurant and an indoor training facility and gym.
