Chance for players from Under-12s to Under-14s to impress
ALBION are staging boys’ open trials from Under-12s to Under-14s level during Whitsun half-term week for their pioneering Colts programme after seeing it produce more than ten Academy players last season.
The Baggies are looking for skilful, quick and intelligent players who are confident and brave.
To be eligible for these trials you must be playing at a very good standard now or have had a trial at any professional club during the season.
The Colts programme also last term produced more than ten players signed by other local professional academies.
Albion’s Head of Academy Recruitment Steve Hopcroft said: “The Colts programme has proved extremely successful.
“There are currently more than 35 Colts associated with our Academy and it is, without doubt, the best route to getting signed as a schoolboy player.”
Under-12s players must currently be in year 7 at school
Under-13s players must currently be in year 8 at school
Under-14s players must currently be in year 9 at school
