THE FA UMBRO FIVES IS COMING
TO DAGENHAM

Ever dreamt of scoring the winner at a Wembley final? There’s only one competition that gives you the chance to be the official 5-a-side champions of England. The FA Umbro Fives is coming to Dagenham, with your first Local Qualifier taking place at Goals Dagenham on Sunday 19th September.

The top team from the Local Qualifiers will progress to one of seven Regional Finals before the very best play in the National Final at Wembley Stadium and follow in the footsteps of legends.

If you make it to National Final, you’ll arrive at Wembley on the official England team bus, get your kit on in the famous changing rooms and walk onto the pitch for the national anthem. After the match, the winners will receive a trophy from the Royal Box and get to celebrate on the pitch like true champions.

Goals Dagenham at Goresbrook Leisure Centre hosts your Local Qualifier at 6pm on Sunday 19th September. And if you can’t make the 19th, The FA Umbro Fives returns to Goals Dagenham for a second Local Qualifier on Sunday 3rd October.
