We are delighted to announce that Easington Sports FC, Banbury United, Adderbury Park FC and Oxfordshire FA have partnered to support the development and growth of youth and adult disability football in Banbury.

The aim of the collaboration is to provide a full youth pathway for players aged 5 to 15 to feed into the existing adult football provision currently delivered by Easington Sports FC.

The long-term aim of the partnership is to provide disability recreational/team opportunities for U12, U14, U16 and adult players in Banbury, and we believe this can be achieved by all clubs pulling their resources together.

To kick things off, the partnership is delivering a Banbury Inclusive Football Summer Festival on Sunday 20th August 2023 (10am – 12pm) at Easington Sports FC (Addison Rd, Banbury OX16 9DH).

The taster session is for individuals to sign up and will provide both youth (5 – 15-year-olds) and adults (16+) the opportunity to come and get involved. Everybody is welcome regardless of learning or physical disability.

Michael Thurlow, Football Development Manager said “We are really excited about this newly formed partnership to support the development and growth of the disability football pathway in Banbury. This will support to bridge a gap in youth provision in the area and further develop existing adult provision.”
