The Bristol Downs Association Football League, founded in 1905, stands as the city's oldest amateur 11-a-side league and features four divisions played on Clifton Down and Durdham Down every Saturday at 2pm.

Bristol Downs Association Football League

This league operates as a standalone amateur competition affiliated with the Gloucestershire FA but remains outside the national league pyramid. Its established schedule on the two named downs continues to anchor weekend amateur play in the area.

Gloucestershire County League

Bristol-based sides in this league include Frampton United in fourth place on 37 points, Bromley Heath United in eighth on 27 points, and Broadwell Amateurs in ninth on 26 points. These placements reflect the competitive spread among local teams at this stage.

Bristol & District League and Avon Youth League

In the Bristol & District League, Bristol Boys sit third with 29 points after 16 matches. Separately, the Avon Youth League shows Brislington Juniors at the top after 11 matches played, nine wins, and a 29 goal difference.

These recorded positions across the divisions supply concrete reference points for following the remainder of the season. Matches continue under the existing structures without connection to higher national systems in the case of the Downs league.

Observers can track updates through the listed league tables to follow how the current points totals evolve in subsequent rounds.
