FA Club Agreement (2026)
In 2026, the initial agreement graduated to a formalised FA Club Agreement. This has extended the association to:
- Formal Partnership Agreement: Clear expectations, shared standards, and a documented commitment that supports long‑term planning.
- Shared Resources and Expertise: Access to still more coaches, facilities, knowledge, and good practice, improving player pathways and reducing duplicated costs.
- Regular Joint Club Meetings With Records: Better communication, decision‑making, and a shared forum to review progress and resolve issues quickly, strengthening the relationship.
Coaching Pathways
- The FA Club agreement also creates opportunities for MYFC coaches to gain experience in the adult game, supporting their long‑term involvement in local football.
