Gunnersbury Athletic Football Club (known as GA or GAFC) is a football community spontaneously organised by a passionate group of football enthusiasts. The club began its journey on the fields of Gunnersbury Park in West London. Founded and managed by Ace Xie, Danny Yang, Lin Li, Terry Shun, and Ying Tu in the summer of 2023, the club was born out of a shared love for the sport and a desire to create a community where like-minded individuals could come together. These founders envisioned a place where football lovers could not only play and improve their skills but also build lasting friendships and foster a spirit of camaraderie. With dedication and enthusiasm, Gunnersbury Athletic FC aims to make a mark in the local football scene and become a symbol of unity and passion for the sport.
