United FC: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

It's time to cheer on your new favourite team - United FC. Get to know the squad in the feel-good teen docuseries that will have you kicking every ball and kick-starting crucial conversations across Ireland.

The new series is presented by Jordan Conroy, two-time Olympian and Irish Rugby Sevens legend along with footballer, presenter and content creator Vanessa Ogbonna - did we mention she won The Traitors Ireland too?!

United FC brings together 15 teenagers from diverse Irish backgrounds for the ultimate team challenge. Part coming-of-age story, part football camp, this thought-provoking series follows these teens as they meet, train and form lasting bonds in the run-up to a soccer tournament. It's not just about goals, it's about identity, resilience, inclusivity and the shared experience of growing up in Ireland today.

Everything builds up to a big tournament, and for the big blitz we called in some extra help from Shamrock Rovers and Cape Verde defender Roberto 'Pico' Lopes and Girls in Green legend Áine O'Gorman. What will the pros think of the United FC squad?
