SINCE 1969

ABOUT THE CLUB

Originally a youth football club based in Hemel Hempstead for 5–18 year-olds, Hemel Aces started in 1969 and has been continually growing over those 50+ years. We are the oldest FA Accredited youth football club in Hemel Hempstead, providing football opportunities for young people for over half a century.


We have teams playing in leagues across Hertfordshire, led by UEFA qualified coaches. All of our coaches are expected to hold at least a Level 1 qualification in coaching football. As the club has developed we have created more opportunities for boys football, girls football, and inclusive football — providing opportunities for as many children as we can throughout Hemel Hempstead.


We focus on development and enjoyment whilst aiming to deliver the best possible introduction to football for all ages and abilities. Our commitment to player development, whilst encouraging players to have fun, makes Hemel Aces a friendly and supportive environment for both players and their families.


We are a registered charity and all of our funding comes from donations, sponsorships, or fundraising activities. If you'd like to support the club, visit our Sponsors page for more information.
