About Neuro Diverse FC

Created from Personal Experience, Not Just Professional

After 15 years in professional football with Liverpool FC, Everton FC, and The FA, founder Tommy Walsh realized local sports often lacked the right environment for children with sensory needs. Inspired by his son Ted, he created NDFC to provide a place where every child can feel comfortable, accepted, and able to be themselves.

Expert Coaching: Built on 15 years of professional experience in top-tier football

Inclusive Environment: Tailored sessions designed specifically for neurodiverse children.

Beyond the Pitch: Developing social boundaries, focus, and independence through play.
