The Cheshire Football Association is the not-for-profit governing body for all football in Cheshire, and is responsible for the organisation, education, governance and development of the grassroots game in the county.  

Cheshire FA works in conjunction with the National Football Association and is an enterprising and dynamic SME in the heart of the County.

The Cheshire County FA Vision of “Changing Lives Through Football” is an all-embracing vision-statement that demonstrates not only our commitment to equality – but also our passionate belief in inclusivity and diversity. The foundations on which this is based are embedded in our values of “Teamwork, Inspiration, Integrity, Responsibility and Empathy” – and the behaviours that link them together.
