Halas Hawks Junior
Football Club was established in 1980 specifically to promote and
develop youth football in the local area.
Halas Hawks is now in
its 30th anniversary season and is regarded as one of the largest
youth development clubs in the area. We now run
twenty seven teams, playing at a competitive level, ranging from
under 7’s (mini soccer) through to open age, including eight girls
only football teams. The teams play in various leagues according
to the managers preference and are represented in
the Stourbridge , Mercian and Birmingham County leagues.
At the end of each
season all registered players attend a presentation evening, where
they receive a trophy supplied and paid for by the club. The club
also runs what is probably the longest running annual 5-a-side
tournament in the area, having just completed its 22nd
competition, which attracted teams from as far away as Lichfield,
Stoke, Warwick and Manchester.
The club is run by a
committee, which comprises of a Chairman, Vice-Chairman, Club
Secretary, Club Treasurer, Club Welfare Officers and all individual
team managers. A committee meeting is held on a monthly basis to
discuss the overall running of the club, any issues arising, and
to assist team managers with their responsibility for the day to
day activities associated with running a team.
In line with the F.A.
Charter Standard requirements, all managers/coaches are CRB
checked and hold a minimum Level 1 coaching qualification. This
also means that the Club must demonstrate and document such things
as a child protection policy, code of conduct, disciplinary
procedures, accounts, a management committee plus many other
requirements.
In addition to this,
the club now have Dudley Seal registered coaches.
