Hebburn Town Juniors A Charter Standard Club
In June this year, Hebburn Town Juniors FC were
awarded Charter Standard by The FA. The Charter
Standard Scheme is best practice guide that sets
standards of coaching, administration and child
protection for all clubs outside the Football
League and Premier League. As a benchmark for
quality, it will improve the playing experience
for all. Club Chairperson Shirley Bowman said
This is a fantastic achievement for the club. We
are one of the larger clubs in the area to
achieve this award and the committee and our club
secretary Sharon Grewcock in particular, should
be proud of their efforts in gaining this award.
