As December comes to an end, it's time for a quick recap of our activities.

Player Signings
U15 Hugo Bull Signs @ Crystal Palace
Hugo Bull signs for Crystal Palace!
We couldn’t be more pleased for Hugo and know he will take this opportunity with both hands.
Hugo started with us at the beginning of the summer and took part in multiple JPL fixtures with us, including showcase games. Hugo earned his opportunity at Palace through a PSA Vs Palace showcase fixture in which he was playing a year up. He was invited into the palace showcase team and impressed.
We are so excited to see where his journey takes him, particularly over the next 18 months!
U15 Louie Phillips Signs @ Coventry City
We are beyond excited to announce that Louie has signed for Coventry City! Where do we even begin?
Louie has been one of our hardest-working players, consistently showing up for 1-to-1 sessions and grabbing every opportunity we offered him. From competing in several European tournaments to countless showcase and JPL games, his dedication has finally paid off.
Did you know Louie spent his U12 and U13 seasons in our elite squad before breaking into the academy squad at U14? This achievement is a true reflection of his hard work and the strength of our program.
Louie, your mindset and mentality truly set you apart. Keep striving for greatness 👏
You’re a role model to everyone here at PSA, and we couldn’t be prouder!
U16 Leonardo Verza Signs @ Venezia FC
We are thrilled to announce that Leonardo Verza has signed with Serie A Italian professional club Venezia FC.
This is a significant step in Leonardo’s career, and we’re excited to see how he continues to grow and excel.
Leonardo has made the big move from England to Italy to pursue his football dream, and we couldn’t be more proud of him.
Good luck, Leonardo – we will miss you! ❤️
PSA's U11 Dylan Chelsea Mascot
Our very own U11 superstar, Dylan, had the incredible honor of walking out with Chelsea captain Enzo Fernández—a moment he'll surely never forget! What an amazing experience for Dylan to be a mascot, standing side by side with one of football’s finest. It was a proud and surreal moment for all of us to see him representing on the big stage and even appearing on our TV screens.
