THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A MORE EXCITING TIME TO BE INVOLVED IN YOUTH FOOTBALL IN LEICESTERSHIRE & RUTLAND
With an excellent network of local grassroots clubs, it has never been easier for children to be involved in playing football.
Whether it is a young player joining a mini soccer team on their first steps in to playing football, trying something new with Futsal or getting involved in a Kickabout session just for the enjoyment of playing, there is a level and opportunity for all.
Have a look over all the opportunities we have below to get involved in youth football.
YOUTH FOOTBALL LEAGUES IN LEICESTERSHIRE & Rutland
Youth football is no longer just about replicating the adult game with 11 v 11 in far to big goals. New formats have been introduced to encourage more touches on the ball at an earlier age with a big emphasis on a young players development.

WHY DO WE MAKE OUR KIDS PLAY LIKE ADULTS?
Let’s provide a safe and fun environment for young people to develop in football.
Leicestershire & Rutland FA encourage a modern, child-friendly approach to youth football, challenging the win-at-all-costs mentality that is stifling development and enjoyment for young people.
Working together with a proactive attitude, adults can help develop a better learning environment for young people that put their development needs at the centre of the process.
