What the trial looks like

90 minutes. Everything counts.

You will warm up, run a short skills circuit, and play in small-sided games against other trialists. Coaches assess technique, decision-making, and attitude — the things that survive a transfer to Europe.

Step 1

Filmed from the first whistle

Every drill, every game. Footage feeds the player's development record from day one.

Step 2

School comes first

Selected players sign a school-attendance commitment alongside the academy enrolment.

Step 3

Real assessment

Coaches assess technique, decision-making, attitude. Honest feedback to every family.
