WELCOME TO HITCHIN TOWN FC (EJA SECTION)
Hitchin Town FC (EJA Section) is part of Hitchin Town Football Club. We are affiliated to the Hertfordshire FA and our teams compete in the Eastern Junior Alliance League.
Currently we have U15's and U16's teams competing in this presigious league. The aim of the EJA is to provide the youth of the Eastern Home Counties with the best standard of football excellence outside of youth teams representing the Premiership and Football League Clubs.
The teams competing in this league are drawn from various senior and step 7 clubs in Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, London, Middlesex and Suffolk who wish to provide their youth players with the highest possible standard of football. Many players from the EJA have gone on to compete in various senior leagues and some have even stepped up to the Premiership and Football League.
There have also been many successes by our teams in the F.A. Youth Cup against the youth teams of established Football League sides and in several instances notable wins over Premiership opposition.
Home matches are played at The Arena, which has a state of the art 3rd generation artificial pitch. Visit The Arena website for more information, including directions to the ground.
