Abbots Youth FC has been providing fun, safe and high-quality football to the children of Abbots Langley for over 50 years — and we're just getting started.
We are a community club dedicated to providing opportunities to the children of Abbots Langley and the surrounding area — and to keeping Sunday football alive for adults through our Abbots Wanderers side.
We're committed to providing a safe and fun environment in which players can enjoy football and improve their skills — making friends and creating positive memories along the way.
We are an England Football Accredited club, recognised for high-quality coaching and maximum opportunities for participation. Our base is at Manor House, in alliance with Abbots Langley Cricket Club. We're grateful to Abbots Langley Parish Council for maintaining the playing fields we're proud to call home. We run development groups from Under 6, competitive teams from Under 8 to U15, and an adult side playing in the Watford Sunday Football League. Girls and boys are welcome in every age group — mixed football under FA rules runs up to Under 11, alongside our new girls-only Under 6 group.
