SOFA Football Opportunities Programme

“Sporting success depends upon having a structure in place that supports talented young performers every step of the way. Coaching, competition, facilities and support services need to be available at the appropriate level throughout the system not just at the elite end of sport. Creating a linked, progressive system of talent development is vital if we are to provide an opportunity for the very best to emerge.”
