Crown Park Suburbs (Porth Tywyn Suburbs AFC) are a Welsh football club from Llanelli in Carmarthenshire. Formed in 1921, they have played in the Welsh Football League reaching the top flight, Division One (Tier 2 of the Welsh Football Pyramid).[1] They currently play in the Carmarthenshire League.
The club has also been known as Garden Suburbs F.C.
The 2020–21 Season would have been a historic season for the club celebrating its 100-year anniversary but celebrations were put on hold due to the coronavirus pandemic. There will soon be something organised for the centenary, and there will be a book written about the club's history, including extracts from the previous 75-year anniversary book, written by Dai Bowen. This centenary book will focus on history, but more importantly, people's experiences and stories of the club.
