Hampton and Richmond Borough Juniors FC Youth Academy
Hampton &Richmond Borough FC are proud to announce that the club will be hosting a football academy at St Paul’s College Sunbury from September 2010. St Paul’s is a high performing academic school, which is 3 minutes walk from Sunbury station, with direct from Clapham Junction taking 37 minutes.
The course entails 8/10 hours weekly study for a Sport leadership award (NVQ level 3 - equivalent to 2 “A” level B passes), which would incorporate the Football coaching UEFA “B” Licence Part one award (F.A. level 2) and in limited circumstances, would allow enough timetable space for two other courses at “A” level/BTEC/NVQ or GCSE retakes (please see brochure).
The boys will receive at least 6 hours training a week from an “A” licence coach on the astro turf on site. They will compete in the mid week Conference league against similar non league and professional (non “A” teams) college teams.
The club will maintain an “open entry” level to their youth team outside of the college offering, with boys coming in at least twice a week to train and play under floodlights in the Ryman Youth League (this team will be an amalgam of the Academy boys and the “open entry” boys). This will allow attendance at any college of their and their parents choosing.
The college course is ideal for boys who wish to follow a career in football coaching, football leadership, sports science careers and sports teaching (links will be sought with St Mary’s Twickenham for instance, for university study for PE teaching and other physical education and sports science careers).
Chairman Steve McPherson said about this exciting new development for the club “This academy is great news for everyone at the club; it will help us to develop our own players for the future and ensure they have a qualification for a career at the same time. I look forward to working closely with St Pauls and would like to thank Nick Hornsey and Paul White for all their hard work in getting us to this stage”
An open evening will be held at Hampton and Richmond Borough FC, Beaver Close (off Station Road), Hampton, Middlesex, TW12 2BT on Thursday 11th February at 7pm.
Trains from Waterloo, Vauxhall, Clapham Junction (30 mins), Wimbledon, Raynes Park and Kingston. Every one is welcome to attend and representatives from Hampton & Richmond Borough FC and St Paul’s will be there to give a presentation and answer any questions. School web site: (www.st-pauls.surrey.sch.uk).
In the first instance please register your interest by supplying a CV to pauljw@live.co.uk and fill in the application form on this web site, or arrive at the open evening with your CV or give your details on the night. Boys with the most promising background will be offered a trial and then the final cohort will be selected in the spring of 2010 after trials.
If you are only interested in the “open entry” (i.e. attend a college of your own choosing and train one evening a week and a weekend morning and play for the Ryman Youth League team) please reply to pauljw@live.co.uk with your CV or details, but indicate this intention.
