BERRIEW Football Club have continued their rebuild ahead of the new MMP Central Wales League North season.

The Rhiewsiders struggled for much of last season following a turbulent summer which saw two managers depart along with a host of players.

However the club has since consolidated and is looking ahead to the new campaign having been strengthened with a draft of new players joining the ranks.

The village club has re-formed its reserve team to compete in the JT Hughes Montgomeryshire and Radnorshire League while also forming a women’s team after several years of building membership and a thriving junior section.
