Bangor are preparing for life back in the Northern Ireland Football League after earning promotion to the Bluefin Sport Premier Intermediate League.
The Seasiders, who were relegated in 2017, will play in the third tier of local football next season after clinching the Ballymena and Provincial Intermediate League title last week.

A 3-1 victory over nearest rivals St James' Swifts at Suffolk Road on Thursday night sealed the deal for Hugh Sinclair's men who have won 25 of their 26 league games this season.
Other applicants for the Bluefin Sport Premier Intermediate League next season included St James, Crewe United, Moneyslane and Strabane Athletic.
However, only Bangor met the criteria of winning their respective league and complying with the required ground criteria.
Bangor replace Sport & Leisure Swifts whose relegation from the third tier was confirmed on Saturday.
On its official website, Bangor stated: "Promotion has been the club's number one objective since it was relegated from Irish League football in 2017.
"This news is a reward for the loyalty, drive and determination which has been displayed on and off the field by the management, players, supporters, volunteers, sponsors and club officials.
"The club would also like to thank the Ballymena and Provincial Intermediate League for its welcome and the assistance offered to the club over the past two seasons."
