Letchworth Garden City Eagles Youth Football Club
The club was established in 1979, currently has over 470 players registered between the ages of 7 and 17, has teams for boys and girls and from the 2008/9 season 2 senior teams which has brought adult football back to Letchworth after a break of 4 years.
All the boys teams are entered in the Royston Crow Youth League, the girls teams are entered in the Home Counties Girls League. The club is affiliated to the Hertfordshire Football Association. The LGC Eagles are proud to be awarded the Football Association Charter Standard Club. The club also hosts a Saturday morning Soccer School and runs regular 5 aside competitions.
The club encourages all managers to study for a coaching qualification, and some have now qualified to advanced level. They have a Child Protection Policy which means that all coaches and managers are vetted by the Football association and the police.
The Eagles are commited to good sportsmanship and behaviour of players, spectators and managers, which means parents, player and the club are required to sign a code of conduct at the time of registration.
The Eagles wishes to encourage players of all abilities, but in pursuit of excellence it offers a Saturday morning coaching school at the Pixmore Ground for children between the ages of 5 and 7.
Letchworth Eagles home ground is at Pixmore playing fields adjoining the North Herts Leisure Centre. For more information contact the club Chairman or Secretary. Applications by new players and adults wishing to coach teams or set up teams for girls are welcome and should be addressed to the Officers of the club or manager for the age group.
The club is run on a purely voluntary basis and is a non-profit making organisation. They rely on the members subscriptions, money raising activities and sponsors to keep running. Many of the teams are supported financially by generous sponsors such as local companies who might for example contribute towards the cost of kit or equipment. Epsilis is proud to sponsor their website. They are always looking for help so if you feel you can get in touch with them - contact details on their site at www.letchwortheagles.org.uk.
