Cardiff City FC's Academy is known for its structured recruitment process, which includes a network of scouts who observe players at their local clubs before inviting them for a training period. The Academy does not run open trials; instead, they prefer to invite players after careful observation. Aspiring footballers can send their playing CV to the Academy, including a fixture list with kick-off times and venues for their team, along with any other relevant football background information. For detailed information on the recruitment process or to make an enquiry, interested individuals can contact the Academy via email. Tony's Soccer School also offers a platform for football trials and provides information on various opportunities for young players to get noticed by scouts and clubs.
