Cheadle Town JFC

Your local junior football club

The club was set up in 2008 to develop talented players from LSC soccer schools in an environment where they could be kept engaged and challenged whilst still enjoying the many benefits the beautiful game brings.

In 2013 Cheadle Town Juniors were awarded ‘Charter Standard’ status by The FA, this kite-mark recognises the standards of specifics such as training facilities, coaching standards, policies, procedures and much more.

  • Each year we have the privilege of putting together new teams of children in Reception and Year 1 to start their journey in junior football.

    Led by qualified FA football coaches, this programme aims to develop the skills of younger children and build their confidence to play for a team in a competitive game.

    Where possible, friendly games will be arranged by our passionate and enthusiastic volunteer coaches. If you choose to join the team following the free taster sessions, payments are made via monthly direct debit.

  • Equal playing time: Equal game time for players will be given in the age groups of u7-u10 where children will play 5 a side from un7-u8, then go on to a 7 a side at u9-u10.

    Attendance at training and attitude will also factor in game time.We strive to ensure CTJFC players receive equal playing time over the course of each game/season, although this will be managed at our coaches discretion.

    Development over results: Our No 1 priority is developing our players, not just technically but socially, emotionally and physically. CTJFC actively encourage our volunteers to not put results over developing these areas in any of our teams, although this will be managed at their discretion.
