Crosby United U9

About Crosby United U9

Crosby United JFC welcomes children of all abilities from the ages of 6 years to 17 years, to take part in football training and competition.

The club focus is on individual player and team development, friendship and the enjoyment of playing football.

The club was founded in 1972 with just one team which was originally known as Gunness JFC. As the club grew & the amount of teams increased, some of the teams moved to Crosby School at Chatterton Crescent, Scunthorpe and the club became known as Gunness & Crosby JFC. Our small sided teams were baesd at Chatterton Crescent, but unfortunately the links & support from Gunness Parish Council where slowly broken & 15 years ago all the teams moved to Scunthorpe, with the 11 a-side teams playing at Foxhills School. With the club no longer having any links with Gunness and the amount of teams we had began to dwindle, it was decided by the remaining members to rename the club Crosby United Junior Football Club in 2008. From this time the amount of teams are increasing by a team per season. In 2012 we took over the Foxhills Sports Ground, since then with funding from North Lincolnshire Council & donations from local companies we have renovated the pavilion & added new changing rooms & a toilet block. In 2014 we are pleased to been awarded The FA Charter Standard.
