Here at Reading City Football Club, we understand the importance a football club can have on a community and are proud to sit at the very heart of the local community here in Reading and therefore strive to be recognised not just as a football club but a force for good within the immediate community and beyond, providing opportunities for participation in a range of sporting, social and cultural activities in the hope that these will lead to health and wellbeing benefits.

As a new year begins, one of the most common new years resolutions is for individuals to lose weight and improve their mental wellbeing and thanks to our collaboration with Reading XL FC, Reading’s first men’s football club dedicated to Weight Loss and Mental Health Support, by helping players lose weight and improve their mental wellbeing, we are able to offer prospective members 25% off their first month.

This offer is only for a limited time only as you must be registered to attend their taster session on Wednesday 22nd January, with your February payment having the discount applied.
