Are you the owner of Coffs City United Lions FC?
Welcome to Coffs City United Football Club (CCUFC), one of the Mid North Coast's oldest football clubs, established in 1968. CCUFC is a Level 5 accredited club under the National Development Programme and holds a level 2 Good Sports club accreditation, showcasing our commitment to excellence both on and off the field.
Our home ground, known as “The Den,” is located at Mclean Street Oval in Forsyth Park. As the largest club in Coffs Harbour and the second largest in the zone, we are proud to have an ever-growing member base. We are particularly enthusiastic about supporting women in football and have a substantial number of female members.
During the summer, we organise a six-a-side competition that attracts over 700 players, ranging from ages 8 to 80, who come together on Tuesday nights to enjoy the sport they love. We cherish the opportunity to see individuals from all nationalities participating in this exciting competition at our home ground.
CCUFC prides itself on its rich history of not only achieving great results but also maintaining excellent governance and organisation. With qualified junior coaches and a dedicated Director of Coaching, our club ensures that our players receive exceptional training and development opportunities. Additionally, we run an exclusive junior academy each year, providing aspiring young players with a chance to further their skills.
Our committee, consisting of eight passionate and dedicated members, plays a crucial role in the success of CCUFC. We are grateful for the support of our many loyal sponsors, including the Coffs Hotel, who has been our major sponsor for over 20 years.
On the field, our men's top league team has been dominating the NCF premier League division for the past 15 years. In 2015, they reached the 6th round of the FFA Cup, showcasing their prowess in competition. In 2020, they were crowned champions of the inaugural Coastal premier League in both first and reserve grade.
Over the years, CCUFC has achieved minor and major topships, with notable accomplishments in 2009, 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2020, and 2021. In recent years, our club earned 5-star recognition in the National Club Development Programme and successfully completed major upgrades to our canteen. Notably, our senior men's and women's teams have consistently performed exceptionally well, with our men's team winning the CPL competition for two consecutive years.
In 2019, CCUFC attained Level 2 Good Sports Club status and experienced a significant increase in membership numbers, reaching 408 members. As a club, we fielded teams in all female age groups, marking a significant milestone in our commitment to promoting women's football.
Our committee, led by President Brett Hodgekiss and Secretary Kylie Williams, ensures the smooth operation and development of CCUFC. Under their guidance, our club continues to thrive and provide opportunities for our players to excel.
