For players
Find a football team to join
Last updated: 2 November 2026
BallFindr is a free way for players aged 16 and over to find a football club in England: Sunday league, Saturday non-league, veterans' and women's football. Make a profile, see clubs near you that need players, and get invited to trials.
How it works
- Make your player profile: positions, level, where you are, a photo and clips if you have them.
- Set your availability, so clubs know you're looking, and mark yourself open to trials.
- Find clubs and vacancies near you, and apply to the ones that fit in a tap.
- Save clubs you like and get told when they post a vacancy.
- Clubs that need your position can message you and invite you to trial. Accept or decline in the app.
Other ways to find a team
Every listed non-league and grassroots team in England, with links to club websites:
- Football clubs by county: every team near you by league and division.
- Sunday league football: Sunday teams in your county.
- Saturday football: Saturday non-league clubs from the highest step down.
- Football trials: clubs holding trials now and how trials work.

Questions people ask
How do I find a football team to join near me?
Browse the clubs in your county by league and level, or the Sunday league and Saturday football pages, and contact a few teams near you. Or make a free BallFindr player profile with your positions, level and availability, so clubs near you that need players can find you and invite you to trial.
Is BallFindr free for players?
Yes. Making a profile, finding clubs, applying to vacancies, messaging clubs and accepting trial invites are free.
I haven't played for years. Can I still find a team?
Yes. Sunday league and lower Saturday leagues have divisions for every level, and many teams are short of players. Be honest about your level on your profile and look at clubs in the lower divisions near you.
Who can see my profile?
Clubs on BallFindr can see your football details so they can find you. Your email address and date of birth are never shown on your profile. Players can't message other players: messaging is only between players and clubs.
