Catterick: Bedale Juniors Inclusive FC - Open to children with any type of disability


Absolutely thrilled to announce our new venture.

Most kids like to play football, but for some, the school or local team is just not a good fit…… Why? Because they have some sort of disability. 

We at Bedale Juniors want to offer football training and participation for ALL children no matter their ability!
