England Football Accreditation
Take the lead. Set the tempo. Raise the roof.
The Beating Heart of It
Football leagues and clubs accredited by The FA have positively changed the football landscape over the last 20 years.
They create the ideal environments to nurture players, coaches and volunteers. The result is greater diversity and inclusivity through football.
England Football Accredited replaces The FA Charter Standard and is the next chapter in this amazing story as we unite even more communities by supporting Leagues and Clubs over the next ten years.
Who is Accredited for?
England Football Accredited is for all non-professional leagues and clubs. It helps them create the experiences and environments where players, coaches and volunteers can thrive. Accredited clubs are more sustainable, more resilient and built to last.
Raising Stars of the Future
All accredited clubs offer a consistent standard on and off the pitch. Stars are used in accreditation to recognise clubs that provide more opportunities for more people to play.
STAY ACCREDITED
Staying Accredited has moved online. Take a look at your dashboard which will show you everything you need to keep your accreditation. From your coaches qualifications, DBS checks to uploading and accepting your policies – this is your one place to go to renew your club’s Accreditation.
CLUB PLANS
For England Football Accredited clubs, having a strong season plan or club development plan will help you to be more sustainable, more resilient and built to last.
For 1 star England Football Accredited clubs we recommend having a season plan in place. For 2 star and 3 star England Football Accredited clubs we recommend having a club development plan in place.
