Welcome to the summer football and sports academy at St Pauls! Hosted on our premium 4g pitch, this academy is designed specifically for young people aged 12 -16 who want to improve their skills, stay active and have a brilliant summer. Each day features high tempo sessions led by qualified coaches focusing on technical and tactical development with a chance to put these skills to the test in daily tournaments and exhibition games. Beyond the pitch we offer a safe, inclusive, environment where players can build confidence and make new friends. We will also proud to run a dedicated, separate Girls Academy aimed at providing a focused environment for female players of all abilities to play and train.
