CLUB HISTORY
Whitley Junior Football Club Was Formed In 1980
At Whitley Private Members Club The Avenue Whitley Coventry By A Group Of Local Parents Who Wanted A Team For Their Sons To
Play In. They Entered The Coventry Minor League In September Of That Year Playing On Parks Pitches.
After A Long Search
By Whitley We Obtained A Lease On The Land In Chace Avenue Willenhall Coventry In 1986 With The Use Of A Derelict Hostel Building
For A Changing Room.
In 1989 West Midlands Police Obtained Part Of The Land For A New Police Station And If It Was Not
For The Local Press Whitley Would Have Lost Its Pitches. In 1990 A 25 yr Lease Was Given To The Club And A Grant Was Obtained
And A New Changing Room Was Built.
1998 Permission Was Given For Our Small Sided Teams To Play At St Annes School Chace
Avenue Willenhall.
But Now With The Redevolpment Of Work At Binley Rec. It Has Freed
Some Space On Our Land On Chace Ave, So The Small Sided Teams Have Moved Away From St.Annes School.
During 2003 Most Of
Our Teams Moved From Chase Avennue
But This Is Still the Base For The Club, The Teams That Moved
Started Playing From Binley Rec On Grange Avennue, Binley,Coventry.
Over The Past Couple Of Years We Have Been Striving
To Become A Bigger And Better Club. Firstly By Managers And Assistant Managers Becoming F.A. Qualified To Level 1.Secondly Becomming An F.A. Chartered Club Which We Have Now Achevied.We Now Have Managers That Have Passed There F.A. Coaching Badges To Level 2.
