Welcome to Keyworth United Community Football Club, one of the oldest and most respected football clubs in Nottinghamshire and the proud owners of the FA’s highly coveted Community Club status. Today we field over twenty teams with the Under 19 team playing in the M.A.A and two teams playing at senior level in the Notts Senior League.
There are also more than ten junior sides playing in the Notts Youth and Young Elizabethan Leagues and in the past few seasons we started our first ever girls team. Since then, interest has been so great that another three girls teams have been formed.
In line with our strong emphasis on development, our senior teams regularly contain players who have grown and developed through the junior teams, and three generations of some families from Keyworth have played for our village club. As we enter our second century, our profile has grown from being a successful men’s football team within the village, to having a profile that has seen more than twenty new teams evolve, giving hundreds of people within the local area, the opportunity to represent the village of Keyworth.
A number of ex-professional footballers have also donned the green shirt, Sammy Chapman, John Galley and Brian Stubbs played here and Frank Wignall managed the first team for a while. Towards the end of 2001 we became a development centre for Leicester City Football Club thus increasing our emphasis on developing young players and we appointed a Youth Development Officer.
We have since become a development centre for Derby County and were one of the first clubs in England to be awarded with the prestigious Community Club Status.
Apologies for the delay in getting the site back up & running, the fault was caused by our service provider & not helped by their lack of technical support. Headless & chickens (apart from the running around bit) come to mind but we should be back in full order now.
Get kitted out!!!
