Mezzie Youth FC is a community-based team that competes in the Echo Junior Football League. The team was established in May 2022 following the merger between the feeding club and mother brand, Elite Tigers Academy. This merger aimed to create a stronger and more competitive team that could provide young players with an opportunity to showcase their skills and develop their footballing abilities.
Benefits of our league team
Becoming a member of the Mezzie Youth FC league team offers numerous benefits for young players. Firstly, being part of the league team provides players with the opportunity to compete against other skilled teams in Essex, whilst also providing an invaluable platform for players to assess and enhance their own abilities, while also developing essential skills such as teamwork, discipline, and sportsmanship. Additionally, being part of the league also exposes players to scouting opportunities, increasing their chances of being invited to trials and potentially getting signed by professional clubs.
