Copmanthorpe FC - Disability Football

Founded in 1962 with one Senior team, the club now has almost 300 members spread over Senior, Intermediate, Juniors, Girls, Disability and Cerebral Palsy sections. In December 2004 Copmanthorpe FC was one of the first clubs in the area to be awarded the coveted FA ‘Community Charter Standard’.  

Our overall principles are of sport for all, good sportsmanship and for every one of our coaches and players to reach their full potential.  Many Copmanthorpe FC players over the past 40 years have gone on to play professional and semi-professional football or coach professionally.

The Sat 1st and Reserve team play in The York and District Minster Engineering League, with the 1st team competing in the Premier Division which is the highest standard of senior football in the York area. We welcome and encourage all of you to come and support any of the Cop teams.  The team pages will be updated throughout the season with fixtures, results and match reports.

The quality of the Ability Counts section has been proven, with three of our players achieving England Caps for the national Cerebral Palsy team.  The first of these, Steven Brown, went on to play in the CP world cup finals in Brazil. We have built upon this and last season launched our Adult CP section who represent Copmanthorpe FC in the National League.

For a small village club,  we have achieved a lot.   The club is part of the community and the community is part of the club.  We are very proud of that and are constantly looking to improve upon what we do. 

Copmanthorpe Football Club is managed by a dedicated and hardworking committee of volunteers.  Click Here to find out more about the committee.
