FAQs

  • We exclusively support youth football, from ages 4-17yrs, but we also have close ties with local adult football teams for follow-on football. Our Academy specialises in 4-6yr olds from Nursery age to school Year 1.

    The club has multiple teams throughout the age groupings from U7 right up to U17. We also hold a dedicated Wildcats girl's football session, and actively look to field all girls teams, but also support mixed-gender football. 

    Contact us if you would like to enquire about any team vacancies. 

  • All kids that play for Culcheth Athletic must be registered with the FA on the Whole Game System. This process is done by the coaches and volunteers once your child is signed up with the club, or if you are transferring from another club.

    We also use an online direct debit-based system called LoveAdmin, to collect monthly subscription fees. We only collect fees over a 9 month period to match the footballing season.

    Contact us if you are a member of the club and have any questions about how to access these systems.

  • We are a Level 2 accredited football club, and have a team of Child Welfare Officers who ensure the continued safety of all the kids under our supervision. Additionally, all coaching volunteers must hold a valid DBS certificate, First Aid certificate, and Safeguarding Children certificate, otherwise they are not permitted to coach the kids.

  • All teams train for 1 hour during the week, and training days vary by team. Most of our teams play in the Warrington Junior Football League where fixtures are usually played on Saturdays, however, we have teams that play in other leagues including Bolton & Bury District League, and the Wigan Girl's League.

Our focus is on fun, safety, and structured learning for ages 4-17, ensuring every player feels valued and empowered.
