History
The club was originally formed in the mid 1950s playing under a variety of names, which included Pontymister Rovers, Pontymister Rangers and plain Pontymister. A further name change to AC Pontymister occurred in 1977 following an enforced relocation of their home ground from Tanybryn to Pontymister Recreation Ground.[1]
The Club have been members of the Gwent County league since its formation at the start of the 1980s and have had a second side within the Newport and District Football League.
