Our aims are to develop and foster football within West Lothian for all age groups as defined by the
Scottish Youth Football Association (SYFA). We are affiliated to the Eastern Youth Football Region, which is also affiliated to
the SYFA. In contrast to other Associations and the negative outlook generally potrayed regarding participation in football, we continue to grow both in terms of numbers and status and for season 2007-08 we now administer for 6 age groups (13's, 14's, 15's, 16's, 17's and 19's) encompassing over 110 11-a-side teams and over 2000 players and officials. We are also aided by a dedicated number of referees without whom we would have no league football. With over 6 1/2 million site hits in the last 5 seasons alone (2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007), this site is intended to inform you of the latest information regarding our Association, including News, Fixtures, Results and League Tables and we hope that you find this information useful. Please take the time to visit our message board where you can post your own comments.

WLAYFC thank West Lothian Junior teams
The WLAYFC would like to thank Stoneyburn Juniors FC for their hospitality, and use of facilities, at the end of season 2007-08. In total 19 Cup Finals were played at Beechwood Park throughout May and June. The Association would also like to thank Fauldhouse United and Whitburn Junior FC for making their facilities available to the Association for a number of other Cup Finals.
The assistance and co-operation of Junior clubs helps to bring a fitting end to each season and their continued support it greatly appreciated by the WLAYFC.
Armadale Sports Club have been awarded Access Level Accreditation from WLC... Billy Craig ASCArmadale are probably like all the other clubs that receive accreditation. We would like to raise the standards within the club and develope Armadale Sports Club so we can offer a higher standard of organisation, coaching and facilities to our members. We have young people from 5 years old in the soccer school up to our under 19 team. Around 250 players in all. We see this as the first step on the ladder and we are going to carry forward now and hopefully reach Community Club status with both WLC and the SFA within the next few years.
