Grassroots Football Awards 2020 Header

The FA and McDonald's Grassroots Football Awards are back for 2020!

Nominate Your Grassroots Heroes Today!

CELEBRATING THE PEOPLE WHO MAKE GRASSROOTS FOOTBALL GREAT FOR ALL

The nomination window for the 2020 FA and McDonald’s Grassroots Football Awards is now OPEN!

It's been an unprecedented season for everybody across the country, with many understandably disappointed that the grassroots season was ended so abruptly. However, in the wake of the current situation, it is important that our grassroots community continues to stick together and we want to highlight the amazing people involved in our game locally.

The FA and McDonald’s Grassroots Football Awards are for people who make a positive difference. It’s our way to celebrate the fantastic individuals who put their heart and soul into the grassroots game across England and Middlesex – giving us a chance to say a huge thank you to the incredible people who make football possible and inspire us all. 

We want to hear from you, tell us all about your Grassroots Hero, we want to know how they have and continue to have a positive impact on your football community. Nominate them by 18th May and they could be in with a chance of not only local recognition, but national recognition too! With a chance to recognise the volunteers, the clubs and the leagues across Middlesex we want to hear about all of the great work that we may not get to see.
