Background
Formed in 2010, Red Star Redland was an amalgam of two and half 5-a-side teams made-up of players who mainly worked in the media, none of whom lived in Redland. The team took on new impetus when Andrew “Cobbsy” Robinson retired from playing and took-over as manager. He helped shape the club into a proper 11-a-side outfit which went on to have some pretty decent cup runs in the BCL and some excellent summer excursions at summer tournaments in Belgium accompanied by many litres of Jupiler. In 2019 with the average age of the squad creeping up and numbers starting to dwindle, the club merged with Red Star Bedminster which allowed a 45s team to be created alongside the 35s. With a 50s team added in 2021 there is now a Red Star team to take everyone involved up to retirement, and each side is built on the league’s excellent Corinthian principles and a love of playing football.
