An introduction to our Club:

  • Saturday morning coaching sessions for the young people of Modbury and its surrounding communities started in Autumn 2007.
  • In March 2008 the Club was officially constituted and we entered an under 11’s team in the Pioneer Youth League for the 2008/09 season.
  • The emphasis from the very beginning was to create a safe, friendly, environment, where everyone who attended, irrespective of gender, age or ability, had the opportunity to participate fully, enjoy themselves and develop individual and team skills.
  • Our aim was to develop a family club,creating a mutually supportive community spirit where older children work alongside and help younger children. The club currently has 30+ members, boys and girls, ranging from 5 to 13 years old.
  • Our ethos is about commitment, cooperation and consideration of others at all times. The emphasis is very much on developing and learning new skills, not about ‘superstars’ and ‘winning at all cost’.
  • We are registered with Devon FA, all the coaches are CRB checked and we have a fully trained Child Protection Officer.
  • Our facilities aregood and we have all the equipment necessary to put on comprehensive coaching sessions. A new mini soccer pitch has been laid ready for use from September 2009 and the changing rooms are soon to be upgraded with the help of an Investing in Communities grant from Devon County Council.
  • We have had a successful first season in the U11s Pioneer Youth League, with many positive, complimentary comments from opposing clubs managers and parents.
  • This is a growing club and we are keen to attract more budding young footballers from both Modbury and nearby communities.
  • This club is more than just a football club we get involved in local community and national fundraising events. 10 of our players appeared on BBC Children in Need in November and raised nearly £400!
