How to Start a Football Club

We started a team because we all wanted to play football. We weren’t a pub, a working mans club, classmates, or workmates. We initially met to play a 7aside match. We just kept playing and playing. And wanted to play more.

Being confronted with a deluge of information from football associations and league officials, it was quite a daunting task. But when we went through the process, it was actually quite straight forward and easy to do.

The hardest thing? Getting regular players. The most expensive thing? Kits. and that’s the only hard thing really. When you all come together, everything else becomes easy and with a little patience and direction, a club can exist successfully.

We want to help others start friendly football clubs. Enabling people to play the beautiful game, no matter what ability, background or ambition.
