FA Charter Standard Award

Managers, coaches and our Secretary, Kate, take a break from the 18th annual 6-a-side tournament to receive the FA Charter Standard Development Club award from Steven Edwards of Surrey County Football Association. Launched in 2001, the FA Charter Standard programme rewards the achievements of all coaches and volunteers who have worked hard to raise standards and encourages the adoption of good practice at the grassroots level. Cranleigh Youth FC is the first Charter Standard Development Club in Waverley and one of only 20 Development Clubs in the County. This is a big step for the club; the Development Plan outlines the clubs commitment to continuous improvement in the coaching and welfare of all players and volunteers. It puts the club at the centre of the community working with the Parish Council to develop facilities and local schools to increase the awareness of football playing opportunities.
