Upton JFC is delighted to announce that we are now a sister club with Liverpool Ladies FC. There are a number of benefits of this, including training sessions for players and coaches.

On Saturday 6 January, 15 lucky girls went to the Liverpool Ladies home ground for their first event.

Bingo Night was a huge success raising over £620.00 which will be allocated for top up match day kits.

Many thanks to all for organising, Ken, Lindsay and of course, Bingo Master, Alan Dymond.

Thanks also to all who attended and donated raffle prizes.

Upton JFC is proud to announce that they are the 2017 recipients of the Cheshire FA Charter Standard Community Club of the Year award.  The club prides itself on its inclusive philosophy and endeavours to provide football for all; this has been demonstrated this season with the development of girls’ football training, and the inclusion of a new Open Age team and the well-established Vets team in the Chester & Wirral League.

These initiatives have proved very successful, with over 50 girls now training each week, and teams preparing to play competitively in the Cheshire Girls League next season.  Additionally, there was success for the Open Age team in winning the Cayzer Shield, a match played at the Chester FC stadium.

The junior boys’ teams within the club, continue to go from strength to strength, with strong numbers in all age groups. There has also been great success this year, with the U10, U11, U12, U13, U14 and U15 teams all represented in Cup Finals. The U12’s winning the Knock Out Shield, while the very successful U14’s team won both the Eastham & District JFL Cup and the Chester & District Knock Out Cup.

As Steve Stewart, Chief Executive Officer of Cheshire FA said, “the annual FA Community Awards presented by McDonald’s aim to recognise and reward the people and organisations that are driving grassroots football.

There is no doubt that the quantity and quality of all our Award Winners this year is a brilliant reflection of the astounding work that is being carried out by volunteers and clubs – male and female – young and old – across Cheshire.”

Come along to our Annual Presentation Day and bring the family. Events start at 12pm and it will be an action packed afternoon with plenty of fun activities as well as the team presentations. Food, drinks and ice-creams will be available, or bring along your own picnic.

Activities provided by Streetwise Soccer will include:

The ultimate test of skill, the Panna Football Cages offer a unique playing experience, with the aim of the game being to out-skill your opponent with goals and nutmegs.
