Argyle Football Development Programme

Our well established course provides participants with a BTEC Level 3 in Sports Development, Coaching and Fitness, a qualification that opens a pathway to higher education and a career in the sports industry.

 

We are looking for accomplished footballers who want to explore a professional journey that matches their talents with the ball to a passion for learning about the sporting industry.

 

Your BTEC course will be based at Home Park, harnessing our advanced educational facilities within the grandstand and utilising the real-life benefits that come from studying in the unique environment of a professional football club.

 

The football element will see participants train throughout the week and opportunities could arise for involvement in the Plymouth Argyle reserve side competing in the South-West Peninsula League, where you could be playing alongside established professionals and Academy players.

 

We also compete in the National League for Post-16 Football Education programmes, taking on sides from all over the country and including the likes of Chelsea, Bournemouth, Portsmouth and a whole lot more.

 

The success of our BTEC programme saw us reach a semi-final place against Liverpool in the National competition, while 15 of our studens from this summer earned enough UCAS points to apply for University places on specialist sporting programmes.
