Failsworth Dynamos was founded formally in 1997 and will celebrate 13 years as a club this year. At present we operate with 27 teams and 400 players ranging from U5’s to open age for boys, youths and men and U10’s & U12's girls and two new womens teams and we are also looking to provide football for the disabled in the future.

The Club is a charter standard Club, this means that we have been audited by the Football Association and meet all the necessary requirements and criterea for the first class progression of young footballers in a safe and friendly environment.

All new managers are screened carefully to ensure that all Charter Standard requirements are met and all coaches are qualified to at least FA level 1. The club has a clear constitution which is issued to every player and manager and the full committee consisting of all club officials, managers and coaches meet every month to review progress and improve the club.

On the field of play our success and achievements are second to none and more importantly the club prides itself on being friendly and family orientated and sets itself a challenge of finding the correct balance between success both on the pitch and off it with player welfare being of paramount importance. Below you will find just some of the rules, regulations & guidelines that we adhere and operate within.

If you want to know more about the Club, contact our Chairman Leo Turner or any other official at the Club.

Child Protection

The club conforms to and works within the guidelines laid down by the Football Association and other organizations dealing with ‘safeguarding’ children and young people.

FA Charter standard

The club has achieved the FA Charter standard status both as a Junior and Adult club in order to continually improve the standards of its coaching, management and internal procedures. Its aim is to achieve the Community Standard in 2010.

Club Rules

• Subscriptions are for club membership and must be paid monthly to the club by standing order or as a last resort by cash.

• Registrations are to be paid by the given due date at the start of each season.

• Players / Spectators booked or sent off must pay their own fine (FA Rules)

• Kits must be kept in good, clean condition and must not be worn outside of club activities. Any kit damaged or lost must be replaced at the expense of the player or parent / guardian.

Any changes or amendments to the information contained within this constitution can only take place at either the AGM or at a special general meeting where not less than two thirds of the members of the committee must attend.

Football, particularly Junior Football, is a very competitive sport and this is demonstrated both on and off the pitch. Failsworth Dynamos recognise the difficulties that all clubs face in allowing a competitive approach but maintaining a very high level of sportsmanship amongst players and supporters.

This page is intended to help as guidelines for our Managers, Parents, Players & Supporters in terms of their approach in their roles within the club:

Parents:

• Support the team not just your own child
• Always try and assist the team managers
• Respect match officials and their decisions at all times (right or wrong)
• Let your behaviour set the right example to the children
• Encourage your child positively
• Do not criticise
• Allow Managers to manage and coach
• Support fundraising activities & events

Managers:

• Treat the players fairly at all times • Attend the club monthly meetings or make sure a deputy represents you.
