⏳History
🔴 Welcome to Hutton Football Club! Hutton Football Club is one of Essex’s leading community football clubs, rooted in tradition and driven by progress. Founded in 1928, the club has grown into a vibrant hub for grassroots football, offering opportunities for players of all ages and abilities — from first kicks to senior squads.
As a proud asset to the Borough of Brentwood, Hutton FC plays a vital role in promoting health, discipline, and lifelong friendships through the beautiful game. We believe football should be inclusive, inspiring, and accessible to all.
In 2005, Hutton FC expanded further through its merger with Hutton Medway YFC (established in 1969), strengthening our youth development and widening our community impact.
Today, we are proud to field over 60 teams — boys and girls, men and women — from the youngest age groups right up to adult competitive leagues.
We are honoured to hold the prestigious FA Charter Standard Community Club status — the highest level of accreditation awarded by The FA, recognising our commitment to high-quality coaching, child welfare & safeguarding, club development & governance and inclusivity across all age groups
