From 1959, the club reformed from the gloom of two World Wars and it was agreed after a number of committee meetings to enter into Division Two of the Andover & District Saturday League. A meeting to reform the club was held at the Vicarage on Monday 23rd November 1959, in attendance that evening was The Vicar, Messrs. B. Haigh, C French, A. North, C. Ball, A Poulter, N. Carter, R. Cockerill and G. Bell. Mr C. French was elected Captain as was Mr M. Carter Vice Captain.

A number of meetings over the coming months were held to discuss and arrange for the ground to be used and maintained, the possibility of a pavilion, the colours to be worn the ways in which funds could be raised to provide the kit and the necessary nets and etc. The funds needed to meet the costs that lay ahead were raised through whist drives, a Derby draw and a Dance. The profit from these events totalled £25.5.4. The new kit was purchased (continental style green bodies and white sleeves shirts, white shorts and the socks being white bottoms and green tops). Each player buying a set of the socks from the club! A set of nets were also brought at a cost of £11.19.3.

From the meeting of 28th July 1960 a Selection Committee was formed - Len Reeves (Team Manager), Charlie French (Captain), Mike Carter (Vice Captain) and the two non playing members T. London and Nike Carter. For the team Arthur Gray was appointed as Trainer and Mr C. Ball was Linesman. Team training was proposed and agreed to on Mondays and Thursdays.

A lads section of B.S.F.C. was discussed and it was agreed at the next meeting (22nd August 1960) that this would be organised during the 1960/61 season. It was also agreed that for away games a coach would be preferable to private vehicles and if support for these games was forthcoming then a charge of 2/- could be levied. Match fees were also discussed and it was agreed that each player should pay 2/6d for home games and 3/6d for away games.

With meetings set aside the clubs first season commenced however this first season was not without controversy. In the meeting of 31st October 1960 it was recorded that:-

Disciplinary Action

The team manager brought to the notice of the committee that on the previous Saturday, 29th Oct 1960, the team chosen by the selection committee did not line up at the start of the match as selected. 

Arising from this the Chairman proposed, and was seconded by Mr. N. Carter, that the secretary be instructed to call a committee meeting and to invite the captain to attend and answer allegations that 'on the 29th October 1960 in an away match with Upper Clatford the team, due to changes by the captain, failed to line up at the commencement of the match as selected by the Team Selection Committee'.  This meeting would be on 4th November 1960 at 7.30 in the Parish Hall.

In the meeting of the 4th November 1960, the meeting was called to invite the captain to answer allegations that the team selected for the previous Saturday's match had not lined up as selected. After a rather stormy debate on this matter, the captain admitted he had done wrong to change the team and gave the meeting an assurance that this would not happen again.

Other meetings were held at which the lads section was discussed the Chairman called for proposals for the two vacant positions. The Chairman called for the meeting to vote on the proposals and J. Callender was duly elected captain and D. Smith vice-captain. The Lads Team colours would be blue and white shirts and white shorts.

An Annual General Meeting was held on Friday July 21st 1961 and it was recorded that the team had finished a respectable fifth with T. Stevens coming out on top with 33 goals out of a total of 105 scored by the Club. The lads not doing so well from the playing point of view but had not a financial liability!

The meeting duly elected "Election of Officers for 1961-62 season" Rev. Verity as Chairman, W. Haig  as Vice Chairman,  A. Poulter as Treasurer and L. reeves as Secretary.  The General Committee was elected as F. Smith, S. Ball, T. Thornton, C. Ball, M. French, A Freeman, W. Hoare and L.
