At Naas AFC, development means more than winning. We challenge every player and coach to improve — not to play at the highest division, but to play at a level that matches their ability and ambition. Our mission is simple: every child should enjoy football, feel supported, and grow as a player and a person.
Founded in 1990, Naas AFC has grown from a single team into one of the largest underage football clubs outside Dublin and the biggest club in the Kildare and District Underage League (KDUL).
Today, the club fields 40+ teams, boys and girls, ranging from Academy (ages 5–8) through to senior — all supported by an extraordinary volunteer network of 140+ fully vetted and safeguarded coaches.
In 2025, Naas AFC achieved FAI Club Mark accreditation. This award recognises strong standards in governance, coaching, safeguarding and overall club management, which underpins the hard work of the club committee, volunteer coaches and players in ensuring the club has the strongest foundations in place to build a long and successful future.
