Worthing FC, located in the vibrant Sussex Coastal region, enjoys a prime position with access to a significant local population of 110,000+ and a thriving business community. The club is a hub for football and community activities, drawing over 4,000 visitors weekly. Worthing FC’s men’s Senior team competes in the National League South, at Step 2 of the football league pyramid, with ambitions to rise further. Matchdays see up to 3,000 spectators, placing the club among the top five in attendance for Step 2 teams nationwide.

The club is deeply embedded in the community, promoting inclusivity and participation across all demographics. The women’s team is set to compete in the FA Women’s National League Division One South West, with plans to develop a girls’ centre. Youth engagement is strong, with boys’ teams from under-14s to under-18s and a development centre for ages 8-13. The Under-19s Education Academy Programme offers local students a chance to combine football with academic qualifications in BTEC Sport.

Worthing FC’s community initiatives are extensive, including the Worthing Inclusive program with teams in the Sussex Disability League, Walking Football sessions for health and well-being, a Seniors Walking Football team, and the Dementia Friendly “Sporting Memories” group in partnership with Worthing Dementia Action Alliance.

During the pandemic lockdown (March 2020 – March 2021), the club successfully raised nearly half a million pounds through community fundraising and Football Foundation grants. This funding facilitated major stadium upgrades, including a new FIFA-accredited 3G pitch, a state of the art LED floodlight system, and enhanced spectator facilities. The club continues to invest in stadium improvements, aiming for progression into National League football.
