ABOUT US
BACKGROUND
Having run Under 19 programmes playing age group football competing in National Leagues and winning these competitions, it was felt that to give players the best possible pathway into professional football, exposing them to games against men was the next step in player development. We, therefore, have evolved our third-year programme into playing senior football.

Players will have the opportunity to play for the FIRST TEAM or the reserves depending upon ability and their playing time.
You will have the option to train during the DAY OR ON AN EVENING to accommodate the pathway you choose with regards to your EDUCATION OR WORKING COMMITMENTS alongside your football.
Our programme is a FULL TIME TRAINING MODEL that seeks to provide a pathway into playing PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL, or at the very least to push players to play at a HIGH LEVEL, HOME OR ABROAD.
FOOTBALL PARTNERSHIP
PARTNERED WITH
HUDDERSFIELD TOWN & OTHER PROFESSIONAL CLUBS
​
We are following the Huddersfield Town performance programme for football led by their academy director and sports science teams.
By having a weekend games programme it creates opportunities to organise SHOWCASE GAMES against PROFESSIONAL CLUBS to put players in the shop window and to organise regular training ground visits with Huddersfield to take part in situational training. Our emphasis is on getting players to play professional football using this as a vehicle to progress to a higher level.
SHOWCASE GAMES
As part of the pathway, you will play regular games against academies as the northern league midweek schedule subsides. This creates a perfect pathway for you to develop as a player by playing and training at an intense level in the early part of the season, as we head towards Christmas we will organise more games against academies as you have physically developed providing you with the best possible chance of progressing your career. We played a number of showcase games previously against:-
Huddersfield Town B Team
Huddersfield Town U19S
Morecambe Academy
Blackpool Academy
Rochdale Academy
Burnley FC
Manchester City
