Sompting & Thistle Youth are an FA Charter Standard youth football club based in Lancing, West Sussex providing an organised and friendly environment for children in the Sompting, Lancing, Shoreham and Worthing areas. We cater for all age groups and abilities from Under 6 (School Year 1) to Under 16 (School Year 11) and last season we had 9 squads running between ages of u6 and u16.

All teams play in the Saywell International sponsored Arun & Chichester Youth Football League and over the years we have enjoyed success at all levels including teams obtaining promotion, winning League Titles & Cups and also the occasional League & Cup double. Last season our Under 11 team managed by Robert Short were promoted again, after topping the ‘D’ Division last year they have just finished runners up in the ‘C’ Division. In addition, our Under 15 side managed by Stewart Teeder followed last seasons success as “Division Champions” and were crowned “2010 Under 14 Challenge Cup Winners”.

We are currently advertising again for players for next season to add to new and existing squads and also sponsors to help with costs of kits for squads.  We are also working towards becoming a FA Charter Standard Development Club.

If you have any queries please Contact Us or some along to one of our Saturday 10am training sessions at Monks Recreational Ground, Crabtree Lane, Lancing, West Sussex.
