Our Club

We are a welcoming and inclusive Powerchair Soccer Club dedicated to giving people who use powerchairs and manual wheelchairs the opportunity to get involved in sport, make new friends, build confidence, develop their skills, and enjoy being part of a team.

We train every Tuesday evening from 7:00pm to 9:00pm at Corduff Sports Centre. Whether you are completely new to Powerchair Soccer or have experience playing the game, everyone is welcome to come along and give it a try.

There are also opportunities for players to participate in international tournaments, gaining valuable experience competing against teams from other countries and experiencing Powerchair Soccer on an international stage.

For players who aspire to represent their country, there is also the opportunity to work towards selection for the Irish National Powerchair Soccer Team. We are proud to support players in developing their ability and confidence, whether their goal is simply to enjoy the sport, compete nationally, or ultimately represent Ireland internationally.

Midlands United Powerchair Football Club representative

Midlands Utd Power Chair Football Club was established in 2009 with a simple but powerful vision: to provide people with physical disabilities the opportunity to play competitive football, develop their skills, build friendships and, above all, enjoy being part of a team.

Based in the Midlands, the club has grown into a highly successful and respected power chair football club, attracting players from communities across the region. Our players come together from different backgrounds and locations, united by their passion for football and their determination to compete at the highest level.

Since our formation, Midlands Utd has continued to grow both on and off the pitch. Through dedication, teamwork and commitment, the club has enjoyed significant success in competition, while creating an inclusive and supportive environment where every player can develop their confidence, independence and sporting ability.

Our success is built around our players, coaches, volunteers, families and supporters, all of whom play an important role in the club. We believe that power chair football is about much more than winning matches. It is about creating opportunities, challenging perceptions of disability, encouraging participation and giving players the chance to represent their club with pride.

Over the years, Midlands Utd has become more than just a football team. It is a community. A place where players can make lifelong friendships, experience the excitement of competitive sport and be recognised for their ability rather than their disability.

From our beginnings in 2009 to the successful club we are today, Midlands Utd continues to look forward with ambition. We are committed to developing the next generation of power chair footballers, growing participation across the Midlands and continuing to compete, achieve and inspire.

Midlands Utd Power Chair Football Club — established in 2009, united by football, driven by ambition and proud to represent the Midlands.
