About Us
What is HTSA?
HTSA is a non-profit making, democratically accountable Supporters’ Trust and is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and has a legal constitution with a wide range of objectives.
Its objectives can be seen below but can be summarised as aiming to represent the interests of Huddersfield Town supporters to the Football Club, the media, the local community and the football world, as well as encouraging football in the local community and strengthening the links between the local community and the Club.
Whilst financial resources are obviously very important in building and sustaining a successful football club, there also has to be a passionate, human and communal dimension. HTSA is here to help build and sustain a well-supported and well-respected football club.
