January 2006 saw the launch of a new Community Football Club in Kilbirnie.

of the following teams: Kilbirnie Ladeside, Kilbirnie Ryside U21's and
Kilbirnie Ladeside Youth teams at U17, U16, U13, U12, U11, U9 and U8.
The club has been
formed with the following objectives:
i. To increase access to sports and leisure opportunities for the inhabitants of Kilbirnie and the surrounding areas.
ii. To develop a player pathway for local sport and leisure, thereby encouraging a more positive and healthy lifestyle for today's society.
iii. To develop social education programs that reflect the principles and policies of the club, to assist in building a safe and strong community.
The committee and
office bearers are made up from volunteers from the member
teams. They are working closely with the SFA, SYFA, NAC & NAL to
determine the best way forward in achieving these objectives and become
a recognised source of success within the community.
