Disability
WITHIN OXFORDSHIRE OUR DISABILITY PROGRAMME HAS CONTINUED TO GROW
There's never been a better time to get involved and play football, whatever your ability level with more opportunities than ever to play football if you have a disability.
Oxfordshire FA believe in flexible, inclusive and accessible playing opportunities for everyone, and are committed to delivering a range of opportunities for players with a disability to access football at various levels across the county.
Turn Up And Play
For some disabled players affiliated football is not an option because of the lack of desire, time commitment, ability, or simply that they don’t want to play competitive football.
Through the Disability Workforce Fund Oxfordshire FA now has disability-specific 'Turn Up and Play' centres at locations across the county.
These centres currently cater for adults and will allow players to play football in an organised but informal way. For more information about centres currently running in Oxfordshire please see below.
