Horsham Football Club has been building its youth set up
over the last eight years and aims to eventually have
youth teams from mini minor right through to Under 18
levels.
In recent years, many of our squads have
won trophies and been very successful in their
respective leagues. We have also seen the emergence of,
what we hope to be, Horsham's future stars appearing in
the First Team squad which is very exciting as our main
aim is to help the development of young footballers in
the Sussex area to play to the highest possible standard
of football.
The aims of Horsham Youth are backed by Horsham FC's
Board of Directors and its committee and receives valued
support from the club's fans.

season can be found

FA CHARTER
Horsham FC received FA Chartered status four
seasons ago and, as a club, we are improving
our Football in the Community project as we continue to
grow. The Charter Standard
Scheme advocates best practice, a guide that sets
standards of coaching, administration and child
protection for all clubs outside the Football League and
Premier League. The club's officers, including Chairman
Kevin Borrett and CEO John Lines, are CRB checked and
Annie Raby has been appointed as the club's Child
Welfare Officer.
WHAT LEAGUES DO WE PLAY IN ?
Horsham Youth's younger squads will be playing on
Sundays in the Arun & Chichester Youth Football
League or The Sussex Sunday Youth League.
Both leagues are very well run Leagues with strong teams
in both and plenty of good, competitive football on
show. The Under 14s and Under 16s will participate in
the Sussex Sunday Youth League for the 2011-12 season,
with the U15s competing in the Arun & Chichester
League. Our Under 18 squad will be playing in the
Ryman Youth League, with home games taking place at
Three Bridges FC although we are hopeful that the
floodlight facilities at Broadbridge Heath Stadium will
be upgraded during 2011 to enable us to play at a more
local venue.
