Please see statement by Adam Lowthorpe East Riding County FA CE.

“Over the last two years, The FA has been undergoing research and consultation into youth football, discussing different changes to the game and listening to the views of grassroots coaches, clubs, leagues and children across the country. This process finished at the end of September 2011.

The final proposals are now available to view. The East Riding FA along with all other CFA’s will vote on whether to accept the proposals in part or full, or reject the proposals at The FA Council meeting in April. With this in mind we would like to receive as much constructive feedback as possible in order to make an informed decision at FA Council. On Feb 8th all CFA’s will have the opportunity to discuss the proposals with The FA and therefore if there are any specific questions please send them through by the end of January.



It will certainly be an interesting and challenging time.”
