Football for All

Creating a welcoming space where everyone can enjoy football, build confidence, make friendships, and be part of The Diggers community.

Inclusivity at Glasnevin FC

The Diggers have a thriving Football For All section, catering for players between 4 and 18. We provide a fun and friendly environment for players with both physical and intellectual disabilities, as well as players who fall outside of mainstream football due to confidence, physical conditioning or anxiety.

We believe football should be enjoyed by everyone. Our Football for All programme is a hugely important part of the club, providing a fun, supportive, and inclusive environment for players with additional needs to take part, develop skills, and enjoy being part of a team.

The programme is built around encouragement, participation, friendship, and community spirit, helping players grow in confidence both on and off the pitch. Supported by dedicated coaches, volunteers, and families, Football for All continues to be one of the most rewarding and inspiring parts of The Diggers community.

We have many children who are non-verbal, and struggle in team settings, but have really come out of themselves and enjoy the weekly sessions.

We train every Saturday at 1pm, and the focus is on having fun as much as it is on football.

If you are interested feel free to send a message to Ronan at 086 6036191.
