OUR CLUB

Leafield Athletic Football Club was formed in 1970 and is one of the oldest clubs in the local area. As such the Club is very proud that we helped and continue to do so many kids who enjoy playing football.

All our teams and the children who want to play football for them would not exist without the people who take on the role of managers, coaches, club secretaries and treasurers and of course not forgetting those parents, guardians who bring the children to the matches throughout the season. Leafield Athletic thank you all for making Leafield Athletic FC the great Club that it is.

Finally, a warm welcome to all our Players this season, LAFC wish you a great footballing season.
