Horsham Football Club will field five sides at four junior age levels during the 2025/26 season, all of whom will play their home matches at the magnificent Fusion Aviation Stadium.

Our youngsters will be coached by our team of qualified officials, all of whom hold coaching badges including FA level one, UEFA ‘C’ and ‘B’ qualifications.

The club have also announced the launch of a ‘Centre of Excellence’ for boys, and girls, in the under 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 age groups of which more information can be found here

To register your interest in our Centre of Excellence please fill this form

Overseeing everything, as our Head of Youth Development, is Rob Semark.

Rob has an excellent coaching track record and brings with him a wealth of knowledge and experience in youth development. A former product of Southampton’s youth Academy and a professional with Cardiff City, Rob also played at Havant & Waterlooville and has carried out an instrumental role in youth development at Brighton & Hove Albion and most recently with the Crawley Town Community Foundation’s Post-16 Education Programme while also managing Horsham’s Isthmian Youth League squad since 2022.

The Club has held FA Chartered status since 2006, a scheme that advocates best practice and sets standards of coaching, administration and child protection for all clubs outside the Football League and Premier League. Horsham Football Club has appointed a Child Welfare Officer who, along with all coaching and managers at all age groups, is DBS checked. Each squad includes at least one holder of a minimum Level One certificate in Emergency Aid and Safeguarding.

What leagues do we play in?

Our U13s, U14s and U15s will be in division one of their respective age groups  in the Mid-Sussex Youth Football League for the forthcoming season, while we will be represented at U18 level in both the Southern Combination Youth League and the Isthmian Youth League.

      Hi Danielle,

      Thank you for your enquiry.

      While we don’t run a competitive under 10s team we have recently launched our Centre of Excellence for the under 7 to under 12 age groups.

      You can find full details of the Centre of Excellence, and how to register interest, in the links at the top of this page.

    Dear Sir , my grandson currently 14yrs. old(15 in February) will be playing for a team this season at U15 level . he is football mad . He trains with his team in the week but he needs to be training with better players to improve his game . Is there any chance he might be able to train with your U15’s so that he can understand if he is able to step up to the next level ? I am only suggesting training nothing more . Best regards , David Edwards
