The Bromley FC Youth Grassroots Football Festival is a two-day summer celebration of grassroots football, bringing players, coaches, volunteers and families together in a positive, inclusive and well-organised environment.

Taking place on Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st June, the Festival will feature mixed and girls’ teams across a range of age groups. Matches will be played across our 4 3G pitches located at The CopperJax Community Stadium, using simple formats designed to maximise game time, with a minimum number of matches per team and presentations at the end of each competition. Spaces are limited, so make sure you secure your space early.

The festival is about more than just the football, it’s an opportunity to celebrate the people behind grassroots teams and to create a welcoming, community-focused event for players and families alike.

Across the weekend there will be a family-friendly festival atmosphere, with Broomfields open for food and drink, fun inflatables, pop-up food stalls, music and a great community vibe. On-site parking will be available.

Age groups will be scheduled across morning and afternoon sessions on each day.

Please see the FAQs below for details on age groups, formats, timings and pricing. Final schedules, pitch allocations and arrival information will be shared with teams once entries close and numbers are confirmed.

All funds generated from the Festival will support the work of Bromley FC Community Trust, helping us continue to deliver positive programmes for local communities, young people and families across the borough.

Please note we do not accept applications from JPL and Academy-based teams, this is a grassroots tournament.
