Radcliffe FC Community Trust
Radcliffe Football Club has an established Community Trust that delivers school curriculum coaching, and lunchtime and after school clubs to the local Primary Schools and Soccer Schools during the School holidays for over 20 years.
Soccer School
The Soccer Schools offer holiday camps in October, February, two at Easter, various half-terms and five over the Summer. The times are 9am to 3:30pm, and the ages are from 5 to 11 years old.
The Soccer Schools average 40 children a week on the course and it gives the individuals an opportunity to learn new skills, enjoy competing in competitions including penalties, speed and agility tests and small-sided games. The course also gives the children a great opportunity to meet new friends in a safe, friendly and controlled environment.
The Radcliffe FC Community Trust is also an official provider for the HAF project. Vouchers can be collected from the child’s Primary School. The course also invites children to take part in Boxing and Fishing led by our other Community Groups.
All Coaches are FA Qualified and have been DBS checked. Each child will receive a family of four ticket for a future Radcliffe FC men’s first-team match, medals and competition winners will receive a trophy.
The cost for the course is £60 per week per person. If you would like to book a place, please text your child’s full name and age to Pete Lofthouse (07766 911520) stating clearly which course you’d like to book on for, keep an eye out for the future dates on our website or social media platforms.
We are very proud to say that some of the children that have been coming to our camps since the age of 6 have continued through to gain an FA qualification and are now coaching on our Soccer Schools and delivering sports in our local Primary Schools.
The Community Trust has recently launched a new Elite Soccer Camp that will run during the Easter and Summer holidays, the course is delivered by our very own first-team manager Anthony Johnson and various first-term players.
The cost for this exciting new project is £75 per week per person and the age starts from 7 and above. If you would like to book a place, please text your child’s full name and age to Pete Lofthouse (07766 911520) stating clearly which course you’d like to book on for, keep an eye out for the future dates on our website or social media platforms.

Matchday Experience
