Youth football in Alderney is experiencing a resurgence, with a growing number of young enthusiasts participating in training sessions and matches. Training takes place on Sunday mornings, providing a structured environment for skill development and instilling a love for the game.
Training Sessions
Sunday morning sessions are led by qualified coaches who focus on developing fundamental football skills, teamwork, and sportsmanship. These sessions cater to various age groups and skill levels, ensuring that each participant receives appropriate guidance and support.
Competitive Opportunities
To provide young players with valuable match experience, the club organises trips to Guernsey several times a year. These excursions allow Alderney’s youth teams to compete against their peers in Guernsey, enhancing their skills and understanding of the game. In the past, the club has entered under-12 leagues in Guernsey; however, fluctuating participant numbers have presented challenges in maintaining consistent league involvement.
Community Support and Development
The club is committed to nurturing young talent and is actively working to increase youth participation in football. Efforts include community outreach, school partnerships, and initiatives aimed at making football accessible and enjoyable for all interested children.
