  • (1888PressRelease) May 19, 2016 - United London FC is the only club on the planet to give fans the power of team selection each week using a simple squad selection system on a mobile responsive website. From here, fans can log in, analyse the squad and select a starting eleven. The players with the most votes take the field each week.

    Our club is for ex-academy players who do not want to give up on their dream to become a professional. By engaging with football fans on a global basis and partnering with leading digital agencies, we provide a new way of showcasing players whilst also raising the profile of grass roots football in England. By making use of online technology and social media we are able to bring football fans closer to the action than ever before. We already have fans signed up from the UK, USA, Australia, Switzerland, Portugal, Italy, Argentina and more.

    All of our games will be filmed and we will be producing highlights so fans can watch the outcome of their decisions as they happen and through highlights.

    Our players will benefit from their profile being be amplified through partnerships with Snack Media and their network of over 20m unique visitors each month.

    Although our open trial day is not until June, we have already caught the attention of major media outlets, senior members of the FA and some London Politicians.

    Key dates:
    18th June 2016: (c1000 players) Open trials to select initial squad of 60
    2nd July 2016: Final trials and squad announcement
    30th July 2016: Pre-season starts
    3rd September 2016: Season kicks off

    United London FC is affiliated with the London FA and will begin the journey in the Essex Alliance League for the 2016/17 season. We will be playing at the home of grassroots football, Hackney Marshes.

    "We want to give talented young players a platform to get noticed, scouted and signed whist also giving football fans everywhere the opportunity to have a genuine impact with a unique and engaging football experience" - Mark North
