Project · Noor FC
Football, fully inclusive.
A not-for-profit community football club, open to anyone local who wants a game. No trials. No cuts. No cost to start.
What we’re building
A football club for young people who would otherwise be priced out, overlooked, or simply never asked.
We’re open to young people from Noor Homes and from the surrounding streets, many from less privileged backgrounds, and there’s no barrier over money, kit or ability. We run four levels so every player gets a proper game at their own pace, build life skills into every session, and bring local clubs and the professional game alongside our players.
This is not a profit-making venture. It’s a community being built, and football is how we do it.
One club, one badge
Same shirt, same coaches, same rules, wherever a player happens to live.
Noor FC brings our homes, the local community and partner clubs together under a single badge: one properly constituted club that anyone local can join, not a scheme attached to a care company. Nobody watching from the touchline can tell who lives where. That’s deliberate.
Built with local clubs, not against them
Noor FC isn’t building a rival club. We’re building a network with one badge in the middle of it, working alongside local clubs and the professional game to open doors for our players.
There’s no trial you can fail
Four levels. Move between them whenever you like.
