New Players
WIFC are always happy to hear from anyone who might like to join us. New players, especially those under the age of 25, are the future for a club like ours.
WIFC Ethos
The WIFC ethos is closely linked to that of the IFA in which we play. The aim of the IFA is to build bridges between groups of fans of different clubs by playing a friendly game of football.
The trophy cabinet
The PSLNet league was a forerunner to the IFA League as we know it today, and in the 97/98 season WIFC finished runners-up. Aidy Spender and Simon Devon show off their medals, which were presented on the pitch at Vicarage Road.
Hall of Fame
Created in 2003 by then manager Julian Carrera, the WIFC Hall of Fame exists to honour those who've made a significant contribution to the club during their time. Each year at the awards evening, the current management team will select another person to enter the Hall of Fame.
