Our additional training sessions continue to grow, with several now fully booked:

  • Thursday finishing sessions: Fully booked
  • Friday small groups with Fraser: Fully booked
  • Friday goalkeeping with Alex Hobden: Fully booked
  • Tuesday goalkeeping: Spaces available
  • Tuesday girls-only sessions: Nearly full – just a couple of spaces remaining
  • Tuesday open Year 5 & 6 sessions: A few spaces available
  • Wednesday small groups with Trev: Starting after October half-term

Availability at other Link FC open training sessions is very limited. Please spread the word, especially about our Tuesday girls-only and Year 5 & 6 sessions, and get in touch to enquire.

Tuesday futsal with Steve Stracey – £5 per session

Our Tuesday evening futsal sessions are available for Under 8s and Under 11s & 12s, on a £5 pay-as-you-go basis. With plenty of gameplay and touches on the ball, futsal is a brilliant way to improve technique, close control, decision-making and game understanding. We highly recommend these sessions. Please get in touch for details.

Team spaces – 2026/27 season

Most Link FC teams are now at capacity, but we are still welcoming trial enquiries for Under 7s, Under 11s, Under 12s, Under 15s and Under 16 Girls.

Recommendations from our current players and parents are one of the best ways to grow our club. If you know a family looking for football in these age groups, please spread the word and encourage them to get in touch about a trial.

Player of the Month awards

Our September and October Player of the Month trophies have been ordered! Coaches and managers will announce September's winners over the coming weeks. The awards recognise commitment, attitude, hard work and performances in training and matches.

October half-term position-specific training

We're introducing new two-hour position-specific training sessions during October half-term. Further details and booking information will follow soon.

October half-term football camps

Our popular football camps will run as usual for children aged 5–11, with plenty of football, fun and opportunities to develop. Visit our website for camp information and bookings.

Interested in extra training?

We'd love to hear from families interested in 1-to-1 coaching, small groups, position-specific coaching or additional development sessions. We're exploring further opportunities based on demand, so please get in touch and register your interest.

Team training and Spond

All team training updates, fixtures and important team information are communicated through Spond. Please check Spond regularly for the latest updates for your child's team.

Monthly Direct Debit payments

Thank you to everyone who has set up their monthly Direct Debit. Around 90% of families are now set up. If yours is still outstanding, please complete it as soon as possible. Full details are available on our team payments page. We appreciate your support as we complete this transition.

More football. More opportunities. More development. 🧡🖤
