Welcome to Skelton United Junior Football Club
Formed in 2008 to provide local supervised football to the local children in the Skelton area
'Local Football for Local Children'
This is the simple ethos on which Skelton United Junior Football Club is based.
It was recognised that families were having to travel away from their community to access Junior Football. We are linked on an extended school basis to Skelton Primary School.
We believe that every child matters, and that therefore our club will be INclusive, not EXclusive.
As a club, we are looking for children, and their parents/carers, to enjoy this footballing experience. Whilst we appreciate football is a competitive sport, we do not promote a 'Win At All Costs' philosophy
We believe that the professional game at times, sends the wrong message to young people. Respect for other Club members (be that officials, other parents and fellow team mates) should be at the heart of all football. At Skelton United, we intend to adhere to The FA's guidelines on Player, Parent and Coach conduct.
Within the next 12 months, we will have achieved the FA Charter Standard. This will prove our commitment to quality and excellence in Junior Football.
Volunteers and Sponsors Still Needed
We are still looking for more volunteers and further sponsors, if you can help please contact someone at the club.
Thanks
The Committee
Skelton Utd JFC.
Club Finances
It is very important that all parents ensure they pay their subs frequently and on time. The cost to run this club is extremely high and despite excellent sponsorship and support from local business we still rely on contributions from all players and parents.
Please take a moment to read a summary of our current financial affairs, this will hopefully show to all where the money we raise is spent and highlight the need to charge and recieve subs money.
Next Season, 2009/10 all subs will be paid by standing order, on either a weekly or monthly basis (individual circumstances, will be taken into consideration) it is important that we allow our coaches to coach without the distraction of collecting money. It will benefit the children in the long run
