Tigers Football

Founded in 2016, the football club was created to provide an opportunity for 5 year olds looking for a first experience of football in a friendly, caring & relaxed environment. Our seasons continue thanks to some really committed and supportive volunteers and we have established Huish Tigers Football Club within the community.

In 2018 the club was awarded The Somerset FA Club of the Year in recognition of all we’re trying to achieve.

We run multiple teams with mixed groups of U6 up to U15, girls groups from U10, U12, U14 and U15, with a Wildcats Centre for girls U5-8 and U9-11, along with a mixed pan-disability team and a veterans team for over 35s.

Our Vision: To create a sustainable football club for children of all ages and abilities, embedded in the community valuing people over players.

Our Mission: To provide a football club that allows children to feel valued, included and respected whilst exploring and developing their potential in an enjoyable and safe environment.

Our Objectives:

  • To make all players, parents and volunteers feel welcome
  • To develop a passion and love of the game that allows for life long participation
  • To make all those involved aware of their responsibilities when working with children, ensuring that all welfare guidelines are followed and respected
  • To provide young people opportunities to develop holistically as people, giving them a platform to have their voices heard
  • To nurture a coaching workforce that focuses on the development of good people along with good players.
