BURTON YOUTH FOOTBALL CLUB 

For 18 years now Burton Youth Football has been growing and improving in stature as an excellent Village Club. Located near Christchurch, we play our home matches and have our training at the old Homefield School fields (now Winkton Field) off of Stony Lane (B3347). There are approximately154 boys and girls playing within the Club today. A far cry from the original one team! We compete in the Bournemouth Youth Football League as well as the Hampshire County League. Our affiliation is with the Hampshire FA reg no. HYB0052, with teams aged U6 through to U16.

Our "Fun First" policy has helped our club to be successful in the leagues where we compete. For a small village club it is a tribute to our philosophy when we constantly surprise some of the larger clubs in our leagues.

In 2006 all of our efforts were centered around improving all of our club's systems, standards of coaching, organisation and sponsorship in order to achieve FA Charter Club Status. We are proud to have won this award in the summer of 2006. We are now trying to achieve Development Club Status this year.

Thanks to; The FA, The Hampshire County FA and Soccervation along with our managers, coaches, parents and current sponsors.

BURTON WINS FAIRPLAY AWARD.

Burton Youth have just been awarded the FA Fairplay award for Hampshire. Only 13 clubs out of the whole of Hampshire won this award! The award is for the least amount of discipline marks against all teams that make up the club. Each season one or two of our teams comes away with either a league medal or a runners-up medal, therefore we believe this award means we are hard but clean. The award is also made up of points awarded by appointed referees (when available). Congratulations to all of the children, parents and coaches for excellent standards in all aspects of Fair Play.
