Witney’s Tower Hill Football Club has a rich heritage of enabling players of all ability, gender, ethnicity, and religion to participate in the sport. They encourage children from six years and above to adults, to play competitive football in a safe and controlled environment under the supervision of qualified coaches. Affiliated to West Witney Sports and Social Club, their grounds are located on the Burford Road in Witney, OX29 0NB.
Tower Hill FC is affiliated to the Oxfordshire Football Association and are also an England accredited club with youth teams from Under 6 to Under 18, one Women’s, two Men’s teams and an Inclusive Team for players from teenagers to adults.
The Club was formed back in 1971 and this season sees the 25th anniversary of Tower Hill Vixens which started in September 1999. The Vixens provide a range of girls teams from U7 to U16, all of whom play in the Oxfordshire Girls League on Saturday morning. With a pathway into Ladies football from the age of 16, supported by their quality coaches, Tower Hill FC’s commitment to developing The Vixens is something of which they are extremely proud. As the new football season gets underway, Tower Hill FC will be hosting a series of anniversary events, but it would make their year even more special if any local companies would like to get involved in sponsoring the girls team’s anniversary kits.
Recently awarded Squad Girls, which is an FA initiative to encourage girls aged 12-14 to engage in a fun, recreational offer that allows them to develop themselves as well as their football skills in a safe environment, Tower Hill FC invites girls of all ages to take part in football with no previous experience required. The Squad Girl’s sessions are held on Sunday mornings at Windrush Primary School in Witney.
