Woodley United Football Club

2025 will be the tenth anniversary of Woodley United FC, and our motto is ‘Gaudium Joci Causa’ meaning ‘Enjoyment Through Sport’.

The aim of Woodley United Football Club is to offer everyone in our community the opportunity to play, develop and grow through football, regardless of race, gender age or ability.

Our Mens 1st team play in Step 6 of the FA National League System, and our Womens 1st team play in Tier 5 of the FA Women’s Pyramid.

Last season (2023-24) saw our Mens 1st team reach the second round of the FA Vase for the first time, and our Womens team reach the first round of the FA cup for the first time.
