Football Club

Following the Government’s guidance, ACCT has made the decision to cancel all in-person activities until further notice.

We want to reassure members that ACCT will still be running throughout this unprecedented and uncertain time to offer you all support. We are in the process of moving activities online – see our page on our Minecraft Club, which will take place at the same time as our usual weekly ACCTivate and Teenage Club.

We have lots of ideas to move support online and will be working hard in the coming days to set this up. We will be available via email and the club mobile, and will be sending out regular emails and posting on social media to keep you connected.

We are aware that lots of our families are already isolated and self isolating is going to extend that further, along with the increased anxiety that many of us are feeling. We are asking all of you to please reach out to us if you need support and we will do all that we can to help.

Kind Regards
The ACCT Team

ACCT Academy Football Club

ACCT Academy is an inclusive football club run by experienced coaches. Our coaches Brad, Joe and Mike are fantastic at getting everyone involved, regardless of ability. They are effective at managing challenging and distressed behaviour positively.

The sessions are fun and active and help to develop football, social and communication skills, and increase confidence and self-esteem. Functional skills will be improved through fun and engaging drills, games and matches.

Groups for ages 5 – 12 and 13 – 19 years. Siblings are welcome too.

Sessions are every Friday 6-7pm @ Goals Sheffield, 95 Norfolk Park Road, Sheffield, S2 2RU. In cases of extreme weather we will post an update on our website, please check before setting off.

For more information or to book a place please contact Nicola at nicola.hough@acctsheffield.org.uk or text 07527 824034

‘ACCT Academy has enabled three of my sons to access an out of school activity, where they are understood and nurtured in a safe environment.
They love to play football, but sometimes react to situations in a different way to a child who is neurotypical. The specialist staff are equipped to deal with all the situations, and understand the difficulties they have.
ACCT Academy has raised their self esteem enormously, and has helped them to regulate their emotions.’
