About Bristol Downs Association Football League
Football on Bristol’s Downs
The Bristol Downs Association Football League is an amateur 11-a-side competition founded in 1905. It is affiliated to Gloucestershire FA and is based entirely on Clifton Down and Durdham Down in Bristol, known collectively as the Downs.
Read the full league overview
Every league and league-cup fixture is played on the same site, so teams do not have conventional home and away matches. Games take place on the Downs’ pitches on Saturday afternoons, creating a shared matchday setting for all member clubs.
Competition structure
The league currently has four divisions and two cup competitions: the Norman Hardy Cup and the All Saints Cup. It is a standalone competition rather than part of the English league pyramid, with its own local divisional and cup programme.
Clubs include long-established Bristol amateur sides as well as newer teams. Players, new teams and referees can use the league’s official get-involved information, while FA Full-Time carries the live fixtures, results and tables.
Official information
The Bristol Downs Association Football League and FA Full-Time provide current competition information.
