Grass Roots Football

The Welsh Football Trust runs extensive programmes to help develop football at a grassroots level. These include mini football and football for different groups, including different ages, genders, disability groups and ethnic minorities.

Among them, we also aim to develop opportunities at all levels, from "fun football" to internationals.

We do this by forging links with clubs, schools and private organisations, by holding festivals, forming leagues and by offering training to develop skills. And in all this, we are not only concerned with developing football players but also coaches and organisers.

You'll find more information on the different elements we offer in the Grassroots Football section of the website. But if you have a query or can't find what you are looking for, please contact us by phone on 01443 844113 or email us.

Our full contact details can be found here.

The Welsh Football Trust and the Football Association of Wales and are proud to have helped Wales become a UEFA-endorsed 5 star nation after committing to uphold the key principles of the UEFA Grassroots Charter.
