Season 2024/25 – Another amazing year for Upton JFC Girls, with numbers increasing to well over 250 across 10 age groups. Our younger age groups now have 3 teams playing in the Chester & Mid Cheshire Leagues, and our Wildcats programme goes from strength to strength with 17 players having just finished this year’s 5 week course; we look forward to welcoming them along in September as Under 6’s.
On the pitch our U12 Pumas won the Mid Cheshire Champions League, very much enjoying their celebrations after a play off match for the title. The U9 Panthers and U10 Pumas won their respective League Cups and went on to represent the Chester Locality at the inaugural Inter Locality Cup at Moss Farm; doing the Club and the League proud. The U7 age group has taken the NW by storm entering festivals and tournaments with the teams coming away with many happy memories (and a lot of medals).
Most importantly our volunteer coaches continue to provide a fabulous environment for the girls to play with their friends, stay fit, gain skills and confidence. Thank you to all of them; the heartbeat of our club.
Season 2023/24 – A season marked by a significant increase in the number of girls in the club, with membership now over 200. The younger teams are well established in the CGFL – Chester, playing each Saturday morning at KGV, with both the U8 and U9 age groups winning their respective League Cups. More importantly it was great to see all the girls playing football with smiles, come rain or shine (or snow or hail!). The U7 girls played in friendly fun festivals culminating in 5 aside games ready for the U8 League next season. The older age groups continue to play in the Mid Cheshire League, with all teams having strong seasons, building friendships and strong team bonds. For next season there will be a change in format for our U13’s moving to 11 a side, U11’s to 9 a side and U9’s to 7 a side – great challenges lie ahead!
Presentation Day 2024 was a change to the usual format due to the weather, but the girls had a lot of fun as always.
Presentation Day 2023 – Girls and Coaches
Season 2022/23 – As the season comes to a close, we reflect on a great year for Upton JFC girls, our younger age group numbers have been fantastic with 40 girls in U6/7 training each week. At the other end of the age spectrum, we are sad to be saying goodbye to our fabulous U13 team as some of the girls move on to pastures new, and we wish them every success with their football journey.
Our annual presentation day is on Saturday 8th July at Wealstone Lane where we will be celebrating with our players and thanking our volunteers.
Presentation Day 2022- The girls celebrated a fabulous 2021/22 season at the club’s annual presentation day at Wealstone Lane, we say a sad goodbye to some of our long time coaches but welcome new players and coaches to the club.
All our girls teams are now on summer break, please see age group pages for details of 2022/23 training and season start dates.
We have spaces in our U7, U9 & U10 teams (school years 2, 4 & 5 – 2022/23) – please get in touch if you would like to join us (07748 185423).

Our 2022 Reception girls taster sessions were very popular and the group will start U6 training on 10th September. Massive thanks to the parents and also to the coaches from the U7 age group for mentoring and providing support.
Wildcat Training Sessions 2021/22
Our Wildcat sessions have been a huge success with players enjoying fun football on Saturday mornings; we are planning on continuing this group from September when they will become U6’s.
2021/22 Season
Summer training is now underway and most teams have moved back to Wealstone Lane, with friendly matches being played on Saturday mornings.
As we start registrations for the 2021/22 season most of our match day squads are now full, but we are always on the lookout for eager goalkeepers and training players are very welcome. We expect to have teams for the following age groups U6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13/15/17.

On a freezing cold day in March the U9 girls organised a cake sale to raise money for Sports Relief, the girls raised over £100. Many thanks to Grace and Janette for the inspiration and organisation and to the bakers and helpers on the day.
Our friends from Waverton and Frodsham joined us for U7 and U8 friendly matches, we managed to finish before the snow started!
The U9/U11 & U13 competitive teams are now full, although training only players are welcome to join us.
Our U9 team is sponsored by Manleys Solicitors and the U11 by the Deva Group. Thanks to McDonalds for the U11 and U13 kit, they all look very smart.
Upton JFC Fun Festival
In July 2017 Upton JFC hosted it’s first Girls Fun Festival. Over 120 girls, aged from 5 to 15, from Waverton, Blacon and Frodsham came along to play friendly matches. Many thanks to all the volunteers who made the event such a success.
Also, thanks to the team at the Wealstone Lane Pavilion for their support.
