The FA National Youth Council (FANYC) are delighted to announce that we are now recruiting for the 2025-26 FANYC Team.

 

Next season, The FANYC will comprise 16 Youth Leaders to continue to ensure Youth Voice is at the forefront of football across England. We will continue to showcase Young Volunteers and volunteering opportunities in football and support Youth Leaders through their own projects and initiatives whilst continuing to build up a regional network to share successes.

 

For the 2025/2026 season, we have 12 FANYC vacancies for highly skilled, motivated, and capable Youth Leaders between the ages of 16-24 (as of 1st August 2025) from across England to represent the voice of children and young people.

 

The applications are open from today, and close on Friday 18th July 2025 at 12:00 (midday).

 

As a part of the application process we are inviting all applicants to attend an online Microsoft Teams call to further explain the vision and priorities for the FANYC over the coming season and provide more information on the roles available on the team. You will be able to ask any questions they have about the FANYC and the roles available. The links to register for the Teams calls can be found on the application form.
