Whilst competing in the National Football League system, FC Wood Green have exciting ambitions to reach new heights, in particular towards the community and the different under-represented groups. Currently we have two men's senior teams and a youth section; whereby the men's 'First XI' compete in the Middlesex County League, the men's Sunday XI competing in the Hackney & Leyton League, and the youth development team(s) participating in the North London Youth League.

 

We are known to offer an inclusive and friendly environment to allow players or coaches to develop with a smile on their faces. Each and every person is different, and during trials, conventional team training sessions or competitive games, true talent can be overlooked through various mis-judged reasons. That being said, at FCWG we allow people an opportunity to express themselves and to be recognised.

 

Central to our genuine efforts, as a community we have come together to produce a programme that aims to improve what we do and how we do it, with a particular focus on equality and diversity. Within this programme, the community work collaboratively to share the good practices we have in place, while also seeking to improve upon these.

 

Our person-centred approach serves to develop an individual's confidence, independence and cognitive understanding. We have consistently delivered high-quality standards through our specialist staff; gaining a reputation for ensuring each individual is able to reach their full potential, and positively contributing to society.
