Finding a Club

A Good Club


Clubs have a responsibility to organise football that is fun and safe. Most youth teams are run by parents for the enjoyment of their children and aspire to provide the best possible environment.

It is important that parents do check that the minimum standards are being met.

Live Events


Many clubs across the country organize tournaments, football fun days and community events to help recruit new players and volunteers to the game.

These are a fantastic opportunity for families to visit new clubs within their area, and give both children and parents the inspiration to get involved in grassroots football.
