U18 FOOTBALL PROGRAMME

Platform Sports Coaching in partnership with Glenthorne High School & Esher Sixth Form College is offering a fantastic opportunity for players post  16 to join our football academy and gain a total football education without impacting their academic studies. 

The 6th form football programme will be led by Nick Ford & his team of UEFA qualified coaches and offers a wealth of experience at different levels of the game. Having previously attended the school as a pupil Nick is absolutely delighted to be able to offer this programme to the pupils of GHS. A opportunity which did not exist when he was a pupil there. The school has outstanding teaching and is the perfect establishment to host our advanced football programme.

Players that join our football programme will have the opportunity to train outside of curriculum hours with qualified football coaches in a structured environment. Players will then have the opportunity to represent the school/Platform in league games on a Wednesday afternoon, National Cup, Surrey Cup and local competitions when selected. Our experienced Head Coach might then have the chance to evaluate performances, suggest further football pathways and help with the development of the 6th form players.

The academy is open to any players that are attending GHS sixth form or Esher Sixth Form College and the programme comes at no additional cost. Each player that joins the football programme will be asked to purchase the Joma training  kit.  Every player that joins the programme will be expected to portray our Platform values which promote Desire, Respect, Unity & Creativity.
