- **Event Name**: Football Friday - Hastings United Academy
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 30 Jan, 2026 at 06:00 pm
- **Event Description**: ⚽ Friday Football Is Back – And This Time, We’re Backing It All The Way ⚽

A little back story. The Friday night football sessions with Hastings United Football Academy used to run and they were brilliant for local youngsters, but numbers dropped and, like many good community initiatives, it became financially unsustainable and had to stop.

We didn’t think that was good enough.

At 247, we genuinely believe that giving young people aged 12–16 a positive, affordable place to play football, make mates, and burn off some energy is vital for our town. So we’ve stepped in and are funding the pitch to get these sessions back up and running.

No pressure, no trials, no politics. Just a proper game of football in a great environment, with great people, supported by Hastings United.

So if you’re between 12 and 16, love football, or just fancy getting involved, come along and have a kickabout.

? Starts Friday 30th January
⏰ 6pm – 7pm
? The St Leonards Academy

Let’s fill the pitch, bring the noise, and get Friday nights back where they belong – under the lights, playing football, having fun, and being part of something positive in Hastings.
