⚽ VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY – GENERAL SECRETARY ⚽

The Leeds & District Football Association is looking to appoint a Volunteer General Secretary to join our Executive Committee and play a key role in helping lead and develop the Association.

This is an important position at the heart of the LDFA, working alongside fellow Executive Committee members to ensure the Association is well organised, effectively governed and continues to move forward.

Key responsibilities include:

📋 Managing the day-to-day administration of the Association
📧 Managing correspondence and acting as a key point of contact for clubs, leagues, County FA and other organisations
📅 Preparing for and supporting regular Executive Committee and Association meetings
📝 Overseeing agendas, minutes, records and other Association documentation
⚽ Supporting the administration and development of grassroots football across the district
🏆 Working with the District Cup team to support the successful delivery of our competitions
🤝 Maintaining positive relationships with clubs, leagues, referees, other District FAs and the County FA
💡 Working with the Executive Committee to bring forward new ideas and help drive the Association forward

We are looking for someone who is proactive, organised and a good communicator, with the enthusiasm to become actively involved in the future of the Leeds & District FA.

The role may particularly suit someone already involved in grassroots football through a club, league, refereeing or football administration, although this is not essential.

📩 Interested in finding out more?

Email [email protected] with a brief summary of your relevant experience, and we will send you the General Secretary role specification.

⚽ Get involved. Bring your ideas. Help shape the future of grassroots football across Leeds & District.

A season worth remembering.

Before this weekend's cup fixtures begin, we are looking back at last season's winners from across the Leeds & District FA competitions.

Every trophy tells its own story - of the players who competed, the coaches and volunteers who gave their time, the officials who supported the matches and the
communities that followed every step.

Congratulations once again to all of last season's champions. As a new weekend of district cup football begins, we wish every team taking part the very best of luck. Who will create the next cup memory?
