Using our extensive network of contacts across the country we can arrange matches for boys and girls across all junior age groups against local and professional clubs. We work hard to ensure we find the right level of opposition for your group, arranging home and away matches during your stay.
With plenty of scheduled social time after the match, players get the chance to interact with young English footballers of the same age, making new friends and learning about English youth soccer.

We have links with some top Sports Science Universities and can offer workshops or seminars on nutrition and hydration, strength and conditioning and recovery. Sports Science seminars offer a break from on-field training while still providing valuable insights to assist with all-round athlete development and progress on the pitch.
