Trial to be a part of The Albion Foundation's Player Development Academies for the 2020/21 season.

The trials are open to boys between the ages of eight and 11 and are available in three different Academy locations.

The next step in the pathway from Player Development Centres, the Player Development Academy has a key link with the West Bromwich Albion Academy, helping to identify those that are talented and supporting their progress through the Club’s player pathway.

Player Development Academy participants will take part in fixtures against other community programme teams during half term and term holidays and all sessions are delivered by our FA and UEFA qualified coaches that are all first aid and DBS checked.

All trials will observe guidelines set out by the government and FA in respect to the Covid-19 pandemic.
