About Ambleside Junior FC
Building a community through football since 2004
Our Story
Ambleside Junior Football Club was established in 2004 with a simple mission: to provide high-quality grassroots football coaching for children in Nuneaton and the surrounding areas.
Over the years, we have grown from a small local club into a thriving community organisation, now coaching over 500 children every week. Our success is built on the dedication of our volunteer coaches, committee members, and the unwavering support of parents and families.
Affiliated with the Birmingham County Football Association, we maintain the highest standards of coaching and safeguarding, ensuring every child has a positive and rewarding football experience.
