Llangennech Park

Llangennech Park currently plays host to all of CPD Llangennech AFC's teams.  The park consists of one football/rugby pitch, one cricket pitch and pavilion, one bowls pitch, one tennis court and a children's play area for swings, see-saws etc.  There is also an ample car park on site.

The recreation park has been in existence since 1904 after a former major land owner in the village, Mr David Evans had dedicated the land to the Parish Council in 1897.

In 1924 the park was extended to include tennis and bowls facilities.  The extension was opened on 24th May 1924 by Major T.S. Morris.  By 1925 over £3000 had been spent on the grounds comprising of 10_1/2 acres.

Little change was made to the Park facilities until on Sunday 23rd April 1978, a fire in the cricket pavilion which was also used by teams using the football/rugby pitch broke out.  Nearly four years later on 27th February 1982 a handsome new pavilion was officially opened.

It was around this time that the present Football Club came into being and after years of playing regularly at the park the club is now looking to secure a playing field of its own due to the poor playing surface at the park which is probably overused with both rugby and football being played on it.  To see our new pitch campaign click here.
