England duo hand out Albion Academy awards

Posted on: Thu 26 Nov 2009

ALBION'S England Under-16s duo Adil Nabi and Eliken Emenku presented Elite Player Awards to the Baggies' Under-Sevens and Under-Eights Academy Developmet Centre players on Friday.

Over the past six weeks the boys have been practicing their individual skills and have been assessed by the staff on their dribbling and turning skills.

All were granted silver or gold standard.

Academy recruitment officer Steve Hopcroft said: "The boys in the development centre have been working really hard on their skills while being encouraged to show them off during small-sided games.

"We recognise the importance of rewarding the boys' efforts and in return the boys have recognised how important it is to practice and become really smooth with their ball management.

"Every player that comes in and trains receives good coaching, the opportunity to play in a fun environment and the encouragement to show off in games.

"The Development Centre boys will be working hard over the next few weeks to try and achieve gold standard in some other areas of their game."
