 Exciting news for the football players in Bermuda! Footy Promotions is organizing another football try out with the world’s leading football try out company “UK Football Trials” this July.
With six players scouted from their 2015 visit to Bermuda, players secured opportunities with Arsenal, Fulham, Birmingham City, Brighton & Hove and one player joining a Championship Side.
The charity Footy Promotions has invited UK Football Trials back this year with their team of world class UEFA Coaches and a world renowned scout. Hosted at the National Stadium over four days, there are spaces for just fifty players, both male and female attended aged 10-25 for what will no doubt be an incredibly successful event.
Harry Price, the Director and Founder of UK Football Trials gave us this account of their first visit to Bermuda and a bit about the company from their office in the UK.
“Firstly we wish to thank Vinzie and her team at Footy Promotions for inviting us to Bermuda– everyone was so friendly and we thoroughly enjoyed our trip. We provide opportunities to football players to showcase their ability in front of professional football coaches and pro club scouts.”
Talking about their visit last July Harry said, “We knew Bermuda had talented players but being honest we were very impressed by the standard over the four days. One area that stood out for us was the incredible pace shown by almost every player! There was a great buzz with the players demonstrating good attitudes and bringing huge amounts of energy and enthusiasm which made the try out a great success and a very high standard.”
Talking about their visit this July: “We are very excited about our next trip that brings two new additions to the team – a coach with the highest level coaching qualification in the world and former Manchester United scout David Hobson.”
"Should there be any players that would have a realistic opportunity in the UK to challenge the players in a pro or semi pro club then we will be working with Footy Promotions to try and make that happen. It is worth players understanding that they must have an EU passport to play in the UK and all the players we send to clubs for further try outs do have to pay their own way to attend. We will make sure that all players and parents have an unforgettable experience, and we can back up this claim with a 98% Excellent or Good review score in the last 3 years from a TV featured independent review company."
Vinzie Zuill President of Footy Promotions says, “We are glad to work with Harry and the UK Football Trials team again this year. We are aiming to continue to provide professional training and opportunities to Bermudian player’s right here on our soil. Last year’s event was very successful in the aspect that 100 players attended, showed their skills, displayed great work ethic and received assessments on their abilities. As a result players were identified by the top coaches and scouts for further opportunities in the UK. This year, we are excited to host this event again with UK Football Trials. We would like to encourage all football players (boys and girls) to attend this event to get a graded assessment on key areas of their game and also have an opportunity to train with professional coaches and be scouted. We will host regular player and parent meetings leading up to the event to provide more information. There will also be an opportunity for local coaches to be involved.”
