We’re Accredited

We’re proud to share that Bristol Palace FC has officially become an England Football Accredited Club, a mark of recognition handed out by the FA to grassroots clubs that meet the highest standards on and off the pitch. Accreditation isn’t handed out lightly — it means the club has demonstrated it is welcoming and inclusive, fully compliant with FA safeguarding, welfare and equality standards, and staffed by qualified coaches with the right checks and policies in place. In short, it’s the FA’s stamp of approval that Bristol Palace FC is a safe, well-run, and sustainable environment where young players can develop their skills, build confidence, and enjoy the game as part of a genuine footballing community. For a club still growing — currently home to a thriving boys’ under-14s squad, with ambitions to expand further — this accreditation is a huge milestone and a real testament to the hard work of everyone behind the scenes. It’s official: Bristol Palace FC is one of the good ones, and this badge proves it.
