The FA Step into Sport Programme

The FA Step into Sport Programme is designed to support young people aged 14-19 in gaining experience in leadership and volunteering.

The NRCFA look to support these young volunteers to find suitable placements at local FA Charter Standard Clubs.

Young leaders can get involved in the following as they accrue their voluntary hours:

  • Assisting in coaching and fun activities for young people
  • Refereeing
  • Running the club – behind the scenes
  • Marketing and Promotion

The NRCFA has a benefits programme that is used to encourage and support the young people to maintain their involvement with the clubs that they are involved in. Some of the benefits on offer include:

  • Free Umbro clothing
  • Discounted coach education courses
  • Free membership to the NRCFA Coaches Association
