The Irish FA Foundation has launched its M&S Food 2025 Summer Football Camps.
The five-day camps are set to be staged across Northern Ireland between 30 June and 15 August.
As part of the foundation’s grassroots football development programme, and proudly supported by M&S Food, five camps will be delivered throughout Northern Ireland.
Each of the M&S Food camps is offering a girls-only section for parents/guardians who prefer that option.
The sessions provide opportunities for children aged 5-11 to develop and improve their football skills in a structured environment with professionally trained and vetted staff.
Claire Rea from the Irish FA Foundation said: “The camps enable kids to work on skills development and to get outdoors and meet up with and make new friends.
“There will be a fun element at each camp, too, with lots of fun games and activities.
“Alongside their excellent support staff, Irish FA Foundation staff are looking forward to building on the success of previous camps and helping children keep active.”
Places must be booked online. The cost is £35 for one child and £60, £82.50 and £100 for two, three or four kids respectively from the same family.

Football Camps 2025: Opening the Game to Everyone
This summer, we’re proud to launch four inclusive football camps designed specifically for children with disabilities—because every child deserves the chance to play, learn, and thrive through sport. These camps aim to mirror the experience of mainstream football camps, creating safe, supportive spaces where all players can develop their skills, make friends, and build confidence.
Alongside the fun on the pitch, these camps also strengthen our clubs’ capacity to deliver inclusive football year-round. By investing in training, resources, and community partnerships, we’re laying the foundation for a more accessible game—today and for the seasons ahead. Club Development Manager Gareth Allen said “These camps are about more than just football—they’re about belonging, growth, and long-term impact. Every child should have the chance to experience the joy, teamwork, and confidence that football brings. At the same time, we’re building the capacity of our clubs to deliver inclusive football all year round, creating a legacy that will benefit communities for seasons to come."
