Football opportunities in Primary and Secondary Schools
Often schools provide the first introduction to football for children.
Schools football in Herefordshire is ran through the Herefordshire Schools FA, the local affiliate to the English Schools FA, they oversee both Primary and Secondary football within the county.
The Herefordshire Schools FA has a season long events calendar which includes futsal, mini soccer, 11v11, disability and representative football. The HSFA is also responsible for organising a variety of different festivals, tournaments and cups throughout the season for boys and girls.
The two organisations are completely seperate entities however they share a good working relationship and work closely to develop football both in and outside of schools.
It is a great honour to represent your county, every
year the HSFA hold trials for their representative sides. The players selected
are those who are schooled within the county and they represent Herefordshire in cups and competitions. The HSFA currently run U15 and U16 male rep teams.
The HSFA are always looking for more volunteers, to enquire about opportunities please get in touch using the contact information opposite.
