Thank you for your interest in Moor Mead Football Club!
An information pack (attached below) has been developed to assist new players and parents/carers of players who are considering joining the club or have recently done so.
Moor Mead FC (MMFC) is a club for boys and girls from school reception age through to the oldest youth leagues: a true grass roots football club in the heart of the local community. It was founded in 2011 by a group of local parents and continues to be run by local parent volunteers for the benefit of children from the surrounding area.
With an inclusive ethos, and a volunteer led structure based around training and playing matches in local parks - the club’s spiritual home is Moor Mead Park in St Margaret’s - we are proud that the club embodies all that is best about the beautiful game.
Since 2011, MMFC has grown into a club with almost 20 competitive teams playing in leagues from ‘Under 8s’ all the way up to ‘Under 18s.’ In 2016 we achieved the FA charter standard. We are an inclusive club and welcome boys and girls from all backgrounds and of all abilities.
While we aim to ensure a core set of values and standards across all MMFC teams, there are some variations in when and where different year groups train and play. Each year group has a manager (or joint managers) who will be able to provide information about the specific age group you are interested in, but this guide provides an overview of the overall experience players, parents/carers should expect if they join MMFC; and what, in turn, the club expects from you.
We hope you find this a useful introduction, but please do get in touch via the contact details at the end of the document if you would like any more information, or to discuss the club further.

Club Chairman
