Team News
Stratton United has grown from just one u7 team two years ago, to three teams last season and now we have five teams competing in two different leagues this present season. This growth is a tribute to the coaches, players and parents who have given their time, effort and trust to the club.
Last season’s u7 development team managed by Andy Coombs are now competing in the Midsomer Norton Youth Football League (MSNYFL) as Under 8s. This is for players in school year 3 from September ’23 and matches are 5-a-side, 40 minutes long and usually kick off at 10.30am on Sundays.
We are currently seeking a team sponsor
