Fleet Town FC

Our Community

Fleet Town FC prides itself on being an important asset for the local (and wider) community by being open, inclusive and accessible to all, regardless of age, ability or background.

Our vision is to create a space that can be enjoyed by the entire town, where, regardless of ability, everyone has a home, to play and enjoy football. We also carry out many activities away from the Easy As HGV Stadium which are of great value to both the football and non-football attending community

A sample of our community support activities:

  • Renamed the ground to the Mustard Seed Stadium to support the Mustard Seed Autism Trust
