Complete the short form and choose your programme. Our team will contact you with the next steps and attendance details.
This is an opportunity to experience the programme. You will take part in a challenging coaching session, work with our experienced team and see first-hand the standards, intensity and expectations we set for our players. Our coaches will also assess your ability, attitude and potential to join the programme after the completion of your GCSEs.
At our programmes, players can combine A-levels, the BTEC Extended Diploma in Sport or a T-level pathway with a minimum of three football sessions each week and a strong programme of competitive fixtures. Players are supported towards a range of future pathways, including university, US scholarships, apprenticeships, semi-professional football and opportunities within the professional game.
Attending a session gives you the opportunity to compare environments, ask the right questions and decide whether Volenti Academy could be the right next step for you.
