FA CHARTER STANDARD

The Charter Standard is a kite marking scheme that establishes minimum standards of football development in clubs. It is also a means by which good practice is recognised and will raise standards by sharing this good practice and projecting a positive image in your community.

Some of the benefits of the Charter Standard include kit & equipment vouchers, increased funding opportunities, in-service training events and reduced price coaching courses.
