*players will need to obtain a passport from an EU country to be in a position to earn a scholarship or a
Professional Contract. If you do not have an EU passport you may still participate, but it is extremely unlikely
that if you were successful in the trial that you would be able to gain a work permit to play in Great Britain.
Tony's Soccer School has no direct association with CTFC, and Never profit from promoting trials.
However we are aware of the practices used at CTFC and can fully recommend them.
