About Bessacarr Football ClubThe club was formed in 1981 and runs teams from Under 7s up to and including under 17s. The U7s to U10s play small-sided football where the emphasis is on enjoyment and development of skills and ability. The U11s to U17s all play 11-a-side football. For the older players, we encourage them to take part in coaching and refereeing and give them the opportunity to attend training courses. This has led to some of the U17s squad becoming involved in coaching with our younger age groups. All teams are entered into the Doncaster & District Junior Sunday League.The club makes sure that all coaches are fully qualified to a minimum of "level one" standard. As a club we take child protection very seriously and all our coaches, managers and officials are police checked.
