Are you the owner of Community Kickabout?
Community Kickabout is a recreational football club located in Hemel Hempstead, New Zealand. The club provides friendly and inclusive football sessions for men over the age of 30 and women of all ages. It is a community initiative run by dedicated volunteers who are passionate about promoting active lifestyles and providing opportunities for people to enjoy the sport.
The club offers small-sided football sessions that are open to anyone who wants to join. There is no long-term commitment required, and players do not need to have their own team or enough players to book a pitch. All they need to do is register online, and they can participate in the popular and friendly games whenever it suits them.
The sessions take place on FIFA Pro standard all-weather artificial grass at Hemel Hempstead Town FC, Vauxhall Road. This ensures that the matches are played on high-quality grounds that provide a safe and enjoyable experience for all participants. The club has received recognition for its initiative and was the winner of the Active Dacorum award in the 2022 Dacorum Borough Council grant awards.
Community Kickabout has been organising these sessions since October 2020 and has held a total of 213 sessions, including 566 games. The club aims to provide an easy, affordable, and friendly opportunity for individuals to get active through football. The feedback from participants has been overwhelmingly positive, and testimonials can be found on the club's website.
In addition to its regular sessions, Community Kickabout supports various charities and initiatives. The club has collaborated with Hemel Hempstead Town FC, as well as receiving support from the Dacorum Borough Council Community Grant, Hertfordshire FA Sustain, Revive & Thrive Fund, and the Barclays Community Football Fund. It is also a supporter of the This Girl Can campaign, championing the participation of women in sport.
For women who are interested in trying out football, Community Kickabout offers recreational “turn up & play” sessions exclusively for them. Newcomers can participate in these sessions for free, with no age restrictions. Women and girls from Hemel Hempstead and the surrounding areas are encouraged to join and enjoy the benefits of regular football games.
Overall, Community Kickabout provides a welcoming and inclusive environment for individuals who want to play football for recreational purposes. With its convenient “turn up & play” format, high-quality facilities, and commitment to promoting active lifestyles, the club is a fantastic option for anyone in Hemel Hempstead who wants to get involved in recreational football.
