Staffordshire FA are delighted to launch our new four year strategy 'Supporting Staffordshire Football to Enhance our Communities'. 

Staffordshire FA are excited to share our 2024-2028 strategy "Supporting Staffordshire Football to enhance our Communities’ which sets out our key priorities for the next four years where we will focus on Supporting, Developing, Protecting and Uniting the Game within Staffordshire.

We have listened to the game locally and created a strategy that is specific to the needs within Staffordshire, whilst aligning this with the Football Association's National Grassroots Strategy. Key themes have emerged both locally and nationally which we will look to address to support the continued growth and development of the game.

Our purpose as an organisation is to support Staffordshire Football to create safe and inclusive environments where everyone can achieve their Football aspirations focussing on community football, increasing participation at all levels, improving behaviours, and enhancing accessibility to the game. Inclusion, Safeguarding, Leadership and Community are key enablers in how we will tackle these challenges at local level. 

Supporting Staffordshire Football to Enhance our Communities

Chief Executive Officer, Adam Evans said: "Our ambition is to see as many people playing and enjoying the game as possible and do achieve this we need to create safe and inclusive environments where anyone can enjoy their football experience. Participation is the cornerstone of our work that we do and this ambitious strategy will look to address the current challenges both within the game and society that may prevent this. This is a strategy written for Staffordshire Football, we are passionate about localism, and identity is vital for us to truly connect with our communities.
 
"Supporting Staffordshire Football to Enhance our Communities" follows on from "Uniting the Knot" our 2021-2024 where the key theme was bringing the game together within our County. There were a number of key successes that have in turn improved relationships, perception and relevance. 

"I want Staffordshire to be a leader, I want us to be a leading County out there and for us to have our own identity."
