The first step towards joining the Club is to contact directly the team manager(s) in the relevant age group to enquire about possible openings.

A few words about how teams work:

• In pretty much all age groups we run two teams which will be playing at different divisional levels suited to squad strength.
• Where possible we aim to arrange for both teams in an age group to train next to each other and often do joint sessions. The idea is that all players in an age group get to know each other as some will likely switch squad as they develop over the seasons.
• Prospective joiners will normally first participate in a few training sesssions and/or take part in open days before a place is offered.
• Training for U7-U11 age groups takes place at Palewell Common on Saturday mornings whereas training for the U12-U18 teams takes place on weekdays in the evening under floodlights.
• Matches are played on Sundays.
• The official season runs from September to early May.

We are always very interested to hear from new players. Teams usually experience some squad rotation during the summer term (March to July) and it is during that period most team openings occur and when we arrange a number of open days.

Sheen Lions FC exists exclusively for the benefit of children. To get your child(ren) and other young children into football perhaps running a young development squad might be something for you? Youth football is entirely based on the active involvement of parent volunteers.

If you would like to help starting a development squad we would like to hear from you. Sheen Lions will provide the coaching setup just as long as you will take an active role in recruiting and organising your squad. For inquiries please contact:
