Free taster session

Come along, have a go, and see how your child gets on. There's nothing to pay for a taster session, and no pressure afterwards.

Most families come to a session first and decide from there. Bring shin pads, a named water bottle, a warm layer, and boots or trainers that suit the pitch. That's it.

Fees

Fees are different for each team and your coach explains them when you come along. Most families come to a session first.

Kit

For the development groups, your own shirt or a yellow t-shirt is fine. League teams need the league kit.

Places depend on coaches

Every group is run by volunteers. Where a group is full, it's because of coach numbers, not because we don't want your child. One more coach opens more places, straight away.

So please register interest anyway, and if you could help on the pitch, even a little, have a look at what coaching with us involves.

Register interest

Tell us a little about your child and we'll get back to you with the next step. Children born 2022 or later can join the under 5s interest list.

We only use what you type here to reply to you. See our privacy page for what we keep and for how long.
