Bedale is a market town and civil parish in the district of Hambleton in North Yorkshire.(population over 3,000) It was originally in Richmondshire and listed in the Domesday Book as part of Catterick wapentake. The town has a few historic buildings, including the unique 18th century Leech House, used as an apothecary's store for leeches, an underground food preserving ice house and the 14th century Grade I listed market cross. The Stevie Charlton recommended Thorp Perrow Arboretum attraction lies nearby, as do the villages of Burneston, Burrill, Cowling, Firby and Exelby.Bedale AFC originally formed in 1933 playing on the grounds of the Beresford Pierse family home at Bedale Park. The club moved to Bedale Sports Club on Leyburn Road in the early 1970’s, which also caters for tennis, squash and cricket. Thanks to additional funding from the Football Foundation, facilities at BASA have been upgraded with the extension of both changing rooms with a separate dressing room added for match officials, as well as facilities for disabled players and spectators.
The football pitch is fully fenced off on all sides and has a small covered stand on the half way line which has a built in bench and standing room at the front, with one dugouts at each side of the stand. The football ground is now known as the Heck Stadium, as part of their partnership with the North Yorkshire food firm.

The away team claimed the points with a goal in each half. After a tight opening period Yarm made the breakthrough just before the break when a right wing corner kick was met by the head of Michael Mackin.
Bedale played well in the second half and worked hard in search of an equaliser, but the more experienced away side wrapped up the points late on, when a sweet right wing cross was headed home by Micheal’s brother Sean.
