Scholarship Spaces
16th April 2015
ARGYLE’S Football in the Community Trust still have a few places left on their highly successful football scholarship programme starting in September 2015.
We are looking for young players of school leaving age, with a passion to play football at a high level, to take academic studies under the guidance of Plymouth Argyle whilst at the same time honing their footballing talents.
The programme sees 16-18 years olds participate in a number of academic studies alongside a football scholarship run by Argyle. The programme is designed to give people good academic qualifications that can take them into universities, overseas universities, employment and work places. In addition to this it allows young people the opportunity to train and play as a football scholar alongside their studies. Previous players have progressed into the professional game, climbed the football pyramid and also gone overseas whilst others have improved on their football ability and continue to play local football.
It does not stop players training or playing for their local teams. In fact we encourage this and would like players to stay within local football. The programme would not affect your games or training programme as the course is an academic programme and runs during term time.
We have a limited amount of spaces left for September 2015 so please move swiftly to declare an interest in the programme which will allow us to begin the application process.
If you are interested in the programme or would like more information please contact lee.britchford@pafc.co.uk or call the office on 01752 562561 ext 4.
