Since its formation in 2002 by a few willing parents
and a handful of enthusiastic children, Tockwith Juniors has become
a force to be reckoned with in the York and Harrogate area.
It now boasts over 150 playing members with boys and
girls whose ages range from four to sixteen, drawn from the village
and surrounding area. Twenty five fully FA qualified male and female
coaches lead the Saturday training and manage the teams aided by a crew
of indispensable parent helpers.
Teams from Under 10 level through to Under 16 regularly
compete in local leagues such as the York Mitchell League, York Ryedale
League, York Minor League and York Girls Football League as well as
a number of tournaments around the area. Friendly games are arranged
at all levels so that as many players as possible get a taste of match
football.
The club maintains its Charter Standard status and
success on the field has been enhanced by a growing reputation for fair
play and inclusively. Thanks to our dedicated groundstaff we enjoy excellent
facilities – envied throughout the area – and a warm welcome
ensures that clubs enjoy their visit to Tockwith.
TJFC is now an even more important focal point for the village and surrounding
areas and the secret of its success remains participation, fun and enjoyment
for all
