The club, which was founded more than 60 years ago, has seen many professional players and coaches grow from within its ranks to achieve success. These include Clive Barker, Clinton Larson, Rene Richards, Gary Goldstone, Shaun Dundee, Gordon Igesund and more.
Run solely by volunteers and parents who voluntarily commit their time to train and develop children in football and sport, Bayview’s benefit is extended to neighbouring communities and reaches children from as far afield as Merebank and Umlazi.

As many members come from disadvantaged homes and communities and have to be sponsored to enable them to participate in the sport, the onus is on the club which relies solely on registration fees, fundraising activities and the kindness of sponsors to keep it sustainable, to render this service.
