Ilchester youth FC

Creating the environment so we can all enjoy the game

Football is the greatest game in the world. It is played by more people across the globe than any other sport. For a privileged few, it is how they earn a living. But for the vast majority of people who play the game, it is a fun, leisure activity for all ages, to be enjoyed.

We can all help your children enjoy the game more, by creating the right environment. By allowing them to play with freedom. By letting them make mistakes. By encouraging them to make their own decisions. We can simply #LetThemPlay.

Founded in 1995 our purpose is to provide the girls and boys of Ilchester and the surrounding areas with a structured, fun environment to play both competitive and non competitive football.

And most importantly

let your children enjoy their football 

Ilchester is a thriving Football Club situated on the outskirts of the Somerset village of Ilchester. It has one senior side and a huge junior and youth section that encompasses sides from Under 7's right up through the various age groups.v

The Soccer School runs throughout the football season and is based on children aged 5 -6 (reception and year one school ages) with the emphasis initially placed on the individual rather than a team.

The Club annually receives the FA Charter award, awarded to Clubs that have been assessed and proven to be providing football for youngsters in a safe and friendly environment and you can certainly say that that is very much the case.
