A major addition has been uploaded to the website today – a document that tells the history of the club’s football teams over our 12 decades.
You will find this in the History section of the site. We hope you enjoy this piece which tells some of the story of the football teams and players that have graced the Shewsy youth Club down through the ages.
The Shrewsbury Club was founded in 1903 and still flourishing as it is in 2025, that makes it the longest continually serving youth club in the city. The football story is therefore a long and often glorious tale and we have done our best to get it down on record at long last.
You will have your own memories and probably, stashed away in the attic or some dusty corner, you will have photographs too. We would love them all to come out and fill in the missing pieces or make up the second volume of tales.
The archives group in the Shewsy has done some sterling work over the years: Jim Kennedy, Sam Perry, George Marsden, Harry Whittaker, Jim Caples and Adrian Struve to name just a few. Sadly, several of these are no longer with us, but we do hope to get a new group of old club members busy again on looking through the history and bringing some more of it back to life.
If you would like to be part of that, then do please let us know.
We would love to hear from you, do get in touch:
