Lisburn Distillery are pleased to announce the club have been awarded a Championship Licence for the 2019/20 season.

After carefully considering the submissions from the club, the IFA Licensing Committee were satisfied that LDFC had met all the required standards for the award of a Championship Club Licence for 2019/20 and confirmed this earlier today. During the last number of months, the club have worked towards satisfying the Sporting, Personnel, Legal, Infrastructure, Community Relations & Financial criteria.

Despite being unable to gain promotion to the Championship for 2019/2020 as league or play-off winners, in achieving our licence it clearly reiterates our ambition to return to senior football in the near future.

Moving forward, the club will be seeking additional volunteers to contribute to the work required for Licensing but wish to thank Colin Hopkins, Ashley Wragg & also Terry Thompson for their ongoing efforts behind the scenes.
