Lanarkshire Community Youth Football Club

Our dedicated coaching teams look to deliver weekly sessions to help kids and youths gain confidence both in football and generally in life. With help in their football development, and in creating a fun team environment, LCYFC provides a basis for forming life me friendships. Football at youth level has now been recognised to be an integral part of Scottish football. It has also been recognised that younger ages should be taught the game in a more coherent, tolerant and organised manner. The Scottish Youth Football Association (SYFA) has responsibility for the administration, education, development and discipline of the game at this level. Aims and Objectives:

The organisation will advance public participation in sport by:

- Encouraging participation and enjoyment of association football.
- Developing the skills of all participating players and officials.
- Developing a positive lifestyle and the fitness of all participating players.
- Providing a positive, safe and competitive environment to play Fun 4’s to 11 a side football.
- Providing as and when required, in conjunction with the National Development Plan, the Regional Development Plan and local leagues, educational courses covering player protection, football development, drugs awareness, dietary requirements, first aid or any other relevant education for all participating players and officials.
- Promoting sportsmanship and fair play in young footballers, officials and parents irrespective of gender, race, religion or social status.
