Ice-Breakers & Idea Planning For New Junior Fans' Forum Intake

Everton’s 2026/27 Junior Fans’ Forum gathered for the first time during October half-term, with the group brainstorming initial plans and ideas for the campaign. 

The youngsters, aged 11-16, met at the Blues’ Royal Liver Building headquarters for ice-breakers and to learn more about what they can expect from their meetings with the Club throughout the season.

For the first time since its inception, the Junior Fans’ Forum includes returning members this season, meaning those who were part of the initiative in 2025/26 were able to share their experiences and answer questions from the new intake.

Junior Fans’ Forum membership will continue to be staggered over two seasons going forward to allow for greater continuity year-to-year, while still creating an annual opportunity for young Evertonians to apply for the group.

The move will also enable the Club’s Fan Engagement team to collaborate with the Junior Fans’ Forum on longer-term projects and ideas aimed at younger supporters.

Last season, the group focused on raising awareness of Everton in the Community among their peers, culminating in the group working with Everton's Culinary Experiences Partner Aramark to create a one-off fundraising doughnut that was sold at the annual EitC fixture against Chelsea in March.

In recognition of their efforts, Forum members were joined by Everton defender Jake O’Brien, midfielder Charly Alcaraz and then-Blues winger Dwight McNeil for a special launch event and taste test at Hill Dickinson Stadium.

This year’s Forum members will continue to meet in school holidays throughout the season. For updates from their meetings, keep an eye on evertonfc.com/Fans!
