Celebrating 50 Years
Founded by the late Brian Bakes in 1975 who identified a need for a boys team in the local area, Heyside Juniors was born, completing their first full season with just one team. Through the support of dedicated people volunteering their own time, the club has grown and developed to become Heyside FC.
As an England Football 3 Star Accredited Club affiliated by Manchester FA, we are now present in 8 Leagues with over 50 teams including boys, girls, and open age, being a major contributor to supporting the local community with grassroots and amateur football.
All Coaches are DBS(CRB) checked and required to pass an FA Introduction to Coaching Football qualification within 6 months of joining the club. The Coaches must also have completed Safeguarding Children Workshop or Player Welfare in Open Age Football.
Youth is the future
Our club starts with the amazing academy that forms the roots of the club, allowing new teams to grow from it and start a footballing journey for 1000's of local children, giving them life experiences and memories to cherish into adulthood.
This is why our club mantra has always been 'YOUTH IS THE FUTURE'.
If you're looking to join a football club, or have a child that wants to get more from their favourite sport, then you've come to the right club! Take a look around and feel free to get in touch.
