Phoenix F.C. is a football club from Fingal in Dublin, Ireland. The club competes in the Leinster Senior League. Phoenix plays at a football complex in Scribblestown. Their manager is Vernon McAllorum who started his coaching career with Dunboyne FC
The club was formed on 1 June 2006 by the amalgamation of Ashtown Villa and Kinvara Ards. For their part, Kinvara Ards, who were established in 1982, had previously merged with Kinvara Boys.
The committee of Ashtown Villa FC had a vision to bring in schoolboy football to the community based on one club operating in Scribblestown at the wonderful & pristine all weather facilities which is complimented with two grass pitches and a modern club house.
This facility in Scribblestown would not have been possible without the hard work & graft of Seamus O' Connell and his committee. Seamus picked up on an opportunity for a ground swap deal with a well known property developer which left the club in a very healthy financial state.
