Long Lane Junior Football Club

A great, grassroots football club with excellent facilities. Girls football is well supported and actively encouraged. Need to find a team to play for? You'll definitely find one here.
Always looking to raise money to improve their already impressive facilities.
To people only giving one star? Really? Please substantiate your review or people will think it's just because your team lost there. Just saying...

My kids play football every Friday evening. Great facilities and lots of parking spaces.

Plenty of facilities. Bar, hotfood and drink, toilets and changing rooms. Plenty of pitches some bigger than others. Avoid the carpark if you can especially on a sunday morning, theres only one way in and out along an alleyway only wide enough for one car. And the spaces run out pretty quickly due to the amount of games they have being played.

A good place to hold a private function in these days of lockdown slow release. Social distancing in place and, with good weather, extensive grounds with picnic tables set good distances apart. Plenty of good food and helpful staff. If the weather had been bad, the bar area is also large enough to cater for a good size group (maybe about 60 people social distancing?) Plenty of car parking available.

Good quality grass pitches that drain well with good facilities in the club house. There are autro pitches but I have not used those so cannot comment on those. There is food (chips, burgers, etc), tea and coffee also available on match days.

Nice space for football but the entrance to the pitch is narrow. You may miss the turning if you blink..

Great football club. Good facilities. Changing rooms, toilets a bar and sometime they do hot snacks also. On a Friday and Saturday they have goalkeeping sessions. My son thinks it great 👍 so I would certainly recommend. If you are thinking of joining.

The man running the team for long lane under 11s is appalling and should not be aloud to train. My boy had been going for a few weeks as a goalie. Apparently the team needed a goalie to get told they have a goalie for the time being but he has heard in the pipeline that the goalie is leaving just after Christmas and he could be goalie. After getting my sons hopes up again he then tells us that my son is no longer needed as he has got another goalie! It's ridiculous and disgusting! I would bring your child to play for his team he leaves them for over 10 mins injured with out checking on them !
