Welcome to Forbidden City Football Club
There’s only one Forbidden City!
Forbidden City Football Club is an amateur football club based in Beijing, China.
As Beijing’s top amateur Football club, and current champions of the IFFC Thomas Marechal Trophy, Forbidden City Football Club (FCFC or City) has two 11 aside teams and 5 aside teams competing in the top Beijing expat amateur leagues.
Since the club’s founding in 2004, more than 330 players representing all six continents and 30+ countries have played for Forbidden City Football Club.
We currently have 60+ active members from all over the globe including the UK, Netherlands, Germany, France, Spain, Australia, North and Latin America, Africa as well as China.
While we do enjoy our football and play to a relatively decent standard, we are a club focused on fun and the finer points of Beijing life. If you are moving to Beijing or currently live in Beijing and want to play for Forbidden City FC, then join us and play football (soccer) in China. Send us an email for more information about football, training and parties.
Joining FCFC means competitive football all year round, a cracking social scene and the closest thing you’ll have to family during your stay in Beijing.
FCFC is a not for profit football club and relies on the dedication and involvement of its managing club members to get things done and bring you what is probably the best run club in Beijing.

Sponsors
Since 2018 we have been sponsored by VSports, a sports bar just inside the north gate of the Worker’s Stadium comlex, in the Sanlitun district of Beijing. VSports offers us great discounts and specials which means we are happy to come to this great sports bar in Sanlitun after our football games and also frequently at other times to watch sporting events on the big screen, or for a game of pool, darts or beer pong!
