South Woodham Ferrers United is a local community club catering for players of all ability’s from U5 to Adult – we are a Chartered Standard Club, and an advocate of the FA’s Respect Campaign.

The footballing journey starts with ‘mini soccer’ U7’s and 8’s play 5 v 5 football, moving to 7 v 7 at U9 and 10, then 9 v 9 at U11 & 12 and then full 11 v 11 sided football from U13 onwards.

Each team sizes requires a different size team and so we need to make sure we develop the squads we have at South Woodham Ferrers United and to make sure they enjoy the experience and develop to their potential.

The basis for the squad development is an understanding of the range of ability through the squad, this is regularly reviewed, the development and enjoyment of the players is the centre of this process.
