Birkenhead United has a strong history of volunteerism. It is the foundation on which the club was built back in 1963 and continues to play a critical role in both our governance and operations. It enables us to offer some of the best community sport and performance football programmes in New Zealand, whilst also keeping our playing fees as low as possible.
