Behind the Bannsiders
Friends of Coleraine FC is the largest supporters-led organisation backing Coleraine Football Club — the Bannsiders — who play at The Showgrounds on the Ballycastle Road. Established in 2006, we bring together supporters, players and former players, staff and local community oprganisations and businesses to raise funds for club projects and to put something back into the town and surrounding community.
Money raised by Friends has paid for improvements right across The Showgrounds through the years, from the home dressing room to the Friends Foundation Wall and, more recently to support projects that enhance the fan experience. Beyond the ground, we back youth and community football across Coleraine and the Causeway Coast, because a club is only ever as strong as the place it comes from.
Anyone aged 18+ can join. Whether you have stood on the terraces for fifty years or have only just started coming along, you are welcome to join as a Friend. We are All Friends and All Bannsiders!
