Applicants must already be based within practical travelling distance of London. East Sheen FC cannot provide relocation, accommodation, travel funding or visa sponsorship for this opportunity.
Company Description
East Sheen FC is a historic South West London football club, originally founded in 1873 and relaunched in 2026.
We are building a modern football environment focused on performance, opportunity and player development. Our men’s first team competes at Step 8 of English football, with the aim of competing towards the top end of the table while creating a strong platform for ambitious players to develop in the senior game.
Our players train in a structured environment at Rosslyn Park, supported by coaching, strength and conditioning, video analysis and regular player reviews.
Role Description
East Sheen FC is recruiting footballers to compete for places within our Step 8 men’s first-team squad.
We are open to players in all positions and from a wide range of football backgrounds. The main requirement is simple: you should believe you have the ability, mentality and commitment to contribute at Step 8 level.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
We already have a strong group of ambitious younger players and are particularly interested in adding experienced senior players who can improve the starting XI, raise standards and bring leadership and maturity to the squad.
We are also open to applications from experienced player-coaches or player-managers who believe they can contribute both on and off the pitch.
What the Opportunity Includes
- Step 8 league and cup football
- Thursday evening training at 8pm at Rosslyn Park
- Structured coaching and player development
- Strength and conditioning support
- Match footage and video analysis
- Regular six-week player reviews
- A competitive environment with genuine opportunities to earn a starting place
Saturday availability is extremely important, with league and cup fixtures played across London and the surrounding Middlesex area.
Please note: this is an unpaid playing opportunity. Players do not receive a salary, and selected players may be required to contribute towards club membership and registration costs. Any costs will be clearly communicated before a player commits to the club.

Selection and playing time are not guaranteed. All players must earn their place through training, performance and availability.
Qualifications
We are looking for players who:
- Believe they can compete effectively at Step 8 level
- Can regularly commit to Saturday fixtures
- Can attend Thursday evening training at Rosslyn Park
- Are reliable, coachable and willing to meet high team standards
- Are physically capable of competing in senior men’s football
- Want to compete for a place rather than simply be part of a squad
Previous experience in non-league, senior men’s football, academy football, university football or an equivalent competitive environment is desirable, but not essential.
Experienced players who can bring leadership, physical maturity and composure to a young squad are particularly encouraged to apply.
Applications are welcome from players in all positions and footballing backgrounds.
