Shortlisted as a Finalist for the 2026 VAL Awards

We are delighted to announce that Leicester Nirvana FC has been shortlisted as a finalist for the 2026 VAL Awards – Youth Charity of the Year. Voluntary Action LeicesterShire (VAL)

This recognition is a testament to the incredible work carried out across every part of our club. While we’re proud of what happens on the pitch, our greatest achievement is the positive impact we have within our local community.

With 27 teams, hundreds of players, and an amazing network of volunteers, coaches, parents, sponsors and partners, we’re committed to providing opportunities for young people to develop, build confidence and enjoy football in a safe, inclusive environment.

Being named a finalist is an honour, and we’d like to thank everyone who has supported Leicester Nirvana FC on this journey.
