Disability
Kent FA believes there should be flexible, inclusive and accessible playing opportunities for everyone, whatever their level of ability.
Disability football within Kent is continually growing with lots of opportunities available to all who wish to be involved in the game.
Kent FA’s aim is to retain existing provision and then develop existing provisions to make a transition into our Kent Disability League.

DISABILITY CLUBS AND SESSIONS
Kent is home to many disability teams and clubs. The volunteers within these clubs work tirelessly to provide opportunities for those with impairments to play the game within Kent. Most Kent clubs involved in disability football offer pan-disability provision. Pan-Disability is the integration of disabilities to play in a single format of football which is then divided into ability banded football.
Some clubs offer impairment specific provision too, such as provision for those with a hearing impairment or physical impairment, so there are a number of deaf friendly and powerchair sessions across the county too.
For more information or to find a team to join, please see our disability football club and session map below.
