Ringmer
withdrew from the Southern Combination League in March 2018 due to escalating
running costs.
AFC
Ringmer moved into Ringmer`s ground at the start of the 2018/19 season.
The
clubs issued a joint statement which outlined where the new club will operate
in the leagues system.
It
said: "Following the ongoing collaboration between Ringmer Football Club
and AFC Ringmer over the past few years, with the imminent completion of the
new clubhouse and 3G pitch at the Kings Academy we have now effectively
completed a merger between the two clubs and as such adopted Ringmer AFC as the
new club title.
"The
new club badge incorporates the wind turbine that overlooks the new ground, the
dates that Ringmer FC and AFC Ringmer were formed, together with 2020 to
signify the unification of the two clubs.
"Ringmer
AFC will operate three senior sides and a veterans side in the Mid-Sussex
League for 2020/21 alongside a newly-formed under-18 side and women's side”. |
