Challenge Juniors, who will play at the newly- refurbished Buttershaw Business and Enterprise College, are seeking players for their under-nine and under-14 teams in the Huddersfield League.
For further information, contact Lee Walsh on 07971-736865 or e-mail info@challengefc.co.uk.
The club was formed in the summer of 2009 and originally played their home games at the Bradford Academy in East Bowling.
Challenge was created to be a junior football club with a difference - in other words, in line with the ethos of the FA getting young people to develop as footballers from an early age without the need for that winning mentality.
The emphasis is on the players' skill base rather than their competitive nature.
This ethos has already seen Challenge players recommended to professional clubs by their scouts.
The aim of the club is to maintain this drive to produce young people who enjoy playing football without the pressure of having to be in a winning environment.
The winning edge will come in time when they have developed as football players. Head coach Walsh can already see the difference in players as young as six.
This season Challenge Juniors have five teams in the Huddersfield Junior League, also fielding sides at under-seven, under-11 and under-15 level.
The club, which aims to improve players in a safe and unpressurised environment, also has a website being developed at www.challengefc.co.uk.
