The History of Mickleover Jubilee

In 1977 a group of parents formed the club in order to provide football opportunities for their children. This was the year of the Queen’s Silver Jubilee and so our name was chosen to link to that year and event.
We became members of the Derby City League, established in 1968, aiming at the age group 10-15 year olds.

Mickleover Jubilee’s ethos has been built around encouraging young people to enjoy playing the game of football at the highest level possible regarding sportsmanship and performance. This has resulted in the clubs growth, which continues to field teams from under 11’s to under 16 years of age and occasionally at under 18 years, through to the inclusion of girls teams and 6 to 10 year olds playing within the Derby Mini-Soccer League set up to accommodate the more recently formed mini soccer football.
