We are comprised of 5 inter-university league teams competing within BUCS and LUSL leagues. This provides members with a platform to play competitive football twice a week.
The club undertakes volunteering within the local community annually, and we are always looking for more opportunities to give back.
Every year we continuously strive to improve the standard of football we play in order to achieve the best results possible. We also seek to have a good social atmosphere which allows all members to enjoy their football and be part of a unique club.
Charity Match for UNHCR
This year on Monday 2nd December at 7.30pm, we will be hosting a charity match between QM Men & Women's Football and King's Men & Women's Football in support of UK for UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees). The match will be held at New River Sports Ground, White Hart Lane, London N22 5QW. Tickets are £5 and can be bought on this page with all proceeds going towards the charity. Please come support and get as many friends as possible! For any questions feel free to reach out to @qmufc on instagram.
Taster Session/Trials
All students who wish to join QMFC must attend trials. Our 1st semester trials are now over and were held back in October. However, we will be having a refreshers trial in January. Follow the Instagram page @qmufc for updates.
Players will be trialled on technical footballing drills along with match-play situations. Those who perform well will be invited to a second trial. From there, players will be placed into inter-university squads.
If not selected, or for players who wish to just play intra-university matches, they can join one of the 11-a-side or 7-a-side social league teams. For more information, please contact social-leagues@qmul.ac.uk.
Training
- Monday 8 - 9.30pm (1st, 2nd & 3rd Team)
- Friday 8 - 9.30pm (4th & 5th Team)
Equipment: Participants need Astro turfs for training and football boots for competitive matches. They also need shin pads. All playing kit is provided by the club.
Commitment levels required: Attendance at weekly training sessions and availability to play both Wednesdays and Saturdays. A strong commitment is essential to play for QMFC and is a key factor in team selection, poor commitment could lead to expulsion from the club. The three-strike rule will see a warning issued at first, followed by a game suspension for a second strike. If a player receives three strikes there will be a meeting set up within the committee to discuss your place at QMFC.
Trials are held at the beginning of each semester and will be evaluated for technical footballing drills along with match-play situations. The best way to stay up to date with trial information is by following the instagram page @qmufc.
