U16s Played Man City
We were honoured to be invited by Man City U16s to play at their amazing training ground. We travelled to Manchester by coach, visited the Etihad Stadium, and had a nice dinner indoors as it rained.
Then we went to the training grounds and warmed up for our match. The boys were thrilled to face Man City, and the rain cleared up just in time for the game. It was a tight contest against a very skilled Man City team, and both sides showed great football. The boys had a wonderful time and will always remember this experience. We are grateful to Man City for their hospitality!!
Showcase Games
In February, we had a fantastic number of showcase games. Noteworthy matchups during the month featured Birmingham, Wolves, Manchester City, Reading, Portsmouth, Norwich, Stevenage, Cambridge, and Luton.
The purpose of these showcase games is to highlight and promote the talent, skills, and spirit of our academy players. It's games like these that contribute to the overall excitement and growth of football. ⚽

London Cup Finals for U12 & U13s
Our U12 and U13 Academy teams have had an impressive journey in the London Cup, reaching the final stage. Although neither team emerged as the ultimate winner, their performance was commendable. The London Cup consistently showcases top-tier football, and we remain optimistic that next time, victory will be ours! ⚽🏆
Tournaments
Soccer Elite Tours & Tournaments brought together players of various age groups for exciting tournaments. We faced off against professional teams like Birmingham, Wolves, QPR and Barnsley. But that’s not all— there was also grassroots tournaments which was full of action. And, our girls fearlessly took on the boys in one of the tournaments. Despite the occasional downpour, we think everyone had a fantastic time! ⚽🌧️👏
CPD
We run CPD events every half term delivered by our director Kieran Turner. This session was aimed at how to Develop the Matchday Experience.
Continuous Professional Development (CPD) is crucial for staying current in our field, acquiring new skills, and advancing our delivery.
In summary, CPD isn’t just a checkbox; it’s our commitment to excellence. It ensures that we evolve alongside the game we love. Here’s to more days of growth, teamwork, and unforgettable matchday experiences! 🌟
PSA/Tring U18s Are Still Top!
Even with the challenging weather conditions and game cancellations, the Tring U18s have shown remarkable resilience. 🌧️🙌 The team remains confident and ready to bounce back once the weather improves.
