About Us Recent News

Welcome to the website of Frinton & Walton Youth Football Club.

We were founded in 1978.  All work undertaken by the managers and officials of this club is on a voluntary basis. They do however recognise their responsibilities in the roles they have undertaken. Their prime objectives are to make football enjoyable for the children whilst encouraging their football development. The safety of our members is paramount at all times.

Our Life President is Mr Bob Mills. Bob retired from refereeing local football in 2006 after 36 years service. He had refereed all standards of local football, and is therefore widely known and respected throughout the local football community. Bob considers that he got most enjoyment from the officiating at youth matches. We consider it an honour to have Bob as our Life President.

All of our squads have FA Club Coach Level 1 qualified coaches. We are therefore able to offer all our players a standard of coaching that meets the FA's guidelines.

We are also fortunate to have as our Life Vice President Russell Bettany. Russell is another long standing member of the Club having been with us since 1994. He is qualified to FA Club Coach Level 2 and coaches with the Ipswich Town academy. This obviously benefits the Club as Russell runs specialist coaching sessions with all of our age groups.

We are also forging links with local schools to promote the Club in our local community. We believe children should be given the opportunity to coach as well as play football, and it is through these links that we are seeking to provide coaching experience for youths.

Our FA qualified Child Welfare Officer (CWO) liaises with the FA's CRB unit to have criminal records bureau checking of all club officials and managers.

We have teams competing in all age groups of the Colchester and District Youth Football League from under 9's up to under 16's. We look to form an under 8's section each year as a feeder for our under 9's for the following season.

We encourage the involvement of girls in youth football, although the rules only permit mixed squads up to and including the under 11's age group.  We do have mixed squads in these age groups. We are also investigating running an under 12's girls section, with a view to forming a side. Please contact us should you be interested in running or participating in that.

We are also working toward FA Charter Standard. The scheme is a core component of the FA Football Development programme and recognises clubs that are well run, measuring them on a number of criteria, both on and off the field.

Now that you have a flavour for our club please take a look around our website, and thank you for visiting.

 

Football Foundation Grant

We are very pleased to say that thanks to the hard work of Mick Collins, supported by Emma Burden (Girl’s & Women’s Football Development of the Essex County Football Association), the club have been awarded a grant of £400.00 towards the purchase of a new football kit for the Under 10 girls team.

The Golf day held at Frinton Golf Club on Friday 16th October was a resounding success and £880.00 was raised. Well done to all those who organised and took part, especially the winners.

“THE FIELD OF DREAMS”

A dream where The Beautiful Game is enjoyed to the max!
So, this year my plea to parents is remember that dream. Do not destroy it for any child by criticising or putting them under too much pressure to do well. Do not live YOUR dream through your child. Leave them to find them. Once they cross that white line it is THEM and their team mates!

Allow them to make mistakes – that is how we learn isn’t it?

Let them express they – do not shout and bawl if a defender decides to try and take on the whole of the opposition inside his own half. Applaud his courage and skill.

This year we are adopting The FA’s Respect campaign as a club along with the league. I urge you all to try to watch the videos on these pages and comply with everything that you are asked to do on a match day.

If we all do this then we will have a very enjoyable and, successful 2009-10 season!

Chairman

New crop of players required for new Mini Soccer squads

Now the current season is up and running FWYFC is already starting work on developing squads of players for what will be the under 9's and under 8's next season.

If there are boys or girls aged either 6 or 7 at the start of the current school year (current school years 1 &2) wanting to give organised football and training a try we will be starting up training for children on associate terms (i.e. not playing league matches) in a few weeks time.

Please contact the Chairman, Vice Chairman or Secretary for further information.

FA Coaching courses

As a football club responsible for coaching youngsters it is always of paramount importance to us that those youngsters get the right type of coaching by trained coaches.

Congratulations to Paul Perryman and Albert Wiles from the Under 10's and John Lake and Tim Brownsdon from the Under 8's, all of whom successfully completed the course which entailed two full weekends in Upminster.

Please go to the news page for the full story.


Club Merchandise

How would you like to get great sports clothing at fantastic prices whilst supporting our club? Not everyone has the time to help out with coaching the kids or running the club, but this is a great way of you doing something for the club. Take a look at the club news page for further details.


Soccer Parent

As parents and carers of children that play football we have an important role to play. The FA recognises this and through its online totally free Soccer Parent course provides an insight into how we should all behave. Please see our news page for more details.


Child Welfare

This subject is obviously paramount to us all at all times. Esther Beach as our Child Welfare Officer, wrote to all of the club's coaches to ensure they were aware of the FA's guidelines regarding child welfare. The full letter as sent to our coaches can be seen on the news page.
