Hay v Ross HFA Veterans

Veterans

don't hang up your boots just yet.

We know many people want to keep playing football for as long as possible. That's why Herefordshire FA run an 11 v 11 veterans league in the summer months.

The popular league continues to grow and in 2023, seven teams battled it out but a strong Hereford Pegasus team performed consistently over the season to take the league title without losing a game.

Whilst maintaining that important competitive element, the league is played in a fun and friendly environment and offers the ideal opportunity for veteran players to get back into football. With Herefordshire FA organising fixtures, referees and facilities the league is more flexible and requires less commitment from teams. Once your team is set up and registered essentially all you need to do is turn up and play!

With rolling subsititutions and 80 minute matches (40mins each half) there is plenty of time to catch your breath back if needed. Games are tradtionally played on Sundays with a variety of kick off times to suit your schedule and played fortnightly throughout the summer at a central venue.

We are always looking to attract new players and teams so please get in touch if you are interested! We will have a form for players to fill out to help them find a team for the 2024 season.

Start your own vets team

We have created a guide to help those looking to set-up a new adult football team. The guide includes helpful information from setting up the team to increasing awareness; so should you be setting up a team in a brand new club or if you are an established club introducing a new adult team we hope you find the guide of use.
