Announcing a new partnership with the London FA

We are delighted to announce that Shapes has become the official accounting partner to the London FA for the coming 2 seasons, 2025-2027.

The partnership will see us delivering advice, guidance and best practice support for over 950 football clubs across London facilitating football for over 72,500 registered affiliated players.

Through this partnership, Shapes will provide a tailored face-to-face workshop for clubs and leagues on financial planning and accounts management, and bite-sized videos for the London FA website too, similar to the support we already offer to Kent FA.

Strategic Priorities

London FA has 5 strategic priorities in its framework, and we’re delighted to be supporting across all 5 of these through guidance on accounting apps and systems, financial planning for your football club, accounting must-haves and best practice how-to’s.

  • Improve playing choice and experience
  • Deliver equal opportunities for women & girls to play
  • Build more & improve existing facilities
  • Tackle poor behaviours
  • Develop a valued network of volunteers, coaches & referees

We’re proud to welcome Shapes as an official partner. Their ethos and lived experience in grassroots football aligns perfectly with our values. We were particularly impressed with the work they’ve done with Kent FA, and we’re excited to roll out a number of initiatives together over the coming months that will deliver real value to our members

Aquila BurgessHead of Partnerships at London FA

Shapes is a digital accounting and digital marketing agency, specifically helping small businesses and organisations across the UK. Started in 2023, by founders Steve & Jim, we offer a unique mix of accounting and marketing direction and support.

Steve and Jim both grew up in London and have been huge football fans all their lives. Steve played in the Clapton FC youth teams in the late 90s and Jim’s boyhood hero David Seaman inspired a (very) short lived goalkeeping career. Now we support the game in many ways, cheering on our own kids from the sidelines, coaching, even running the line on occasion, and supporting Herne Bay FC Women on the committee and as team sponsors, as well as sponsoring Minster FC and the Pro2Pro Academy.

We love sport, but especially football. We know the incredible impact that it can have on people’s lives. Being exclusive accounting partners to the London FA. supporting over 950 clubs in the region is exciting and an honour to be part of. We look forward to helping teams find their shape off the pitch with better accounting and best practice!
