Write about your football history : As you are probably wondering, do I have a background/ story? I do possess experience at Academy and Centre of Excellence level previously playing for Blackburn Academy of football from the year 2007-’09. As a raw young player who had only played amateurSunday/ Saturday football all my life until being scouted I progressed, learnt and improved massively on all aspects of the game before being released from the Academy at the age of 16. In the space of a week I was contacted by Blackpool Centre of Excellence and then went on to play another 2 years at Blackpool Centre becoming a starter in the under 15/ 16’s squad within that time playing roughly under 10 games for the youth team. On the final night of youth team contract confirmation I was released along with a handful of teammates by the club to make way for a few new signings from premier league Academies. At the same of being released I was studying at my local college Preston’s College formerly known as Preston College where I played and started for the first team for my entire time (2 years) studying at College and at the same time playing for a semi professional team in AFC Fylde’s reserve team. A year and half of playing under Paul Martland and consistent playing time for AFC Fylde went by, coach Martland stepped down and a new coach stepped up which saw me and my position within the squad slowly ushered out of the team, since then I have been playing amateur football the past year to keep me involved in the game and maintain fitness levels. Now at the age of 20 soon to be 21, I understand that the chances of being watched and scouted are not the same as when I was young so I have nowhere else to turn other than enquire about a possible trial hoping for a chance to becoming a professional football player.
Write about your Playing Ability : All my life I have been tossed back and fourth between the striker, centre forward and winger roles so however frustrating being swapped and changed position that may of been I have learnt and different skills, and positional requirements on the field. I mostly play in the striker or centre forward roles, standing at 5'11 and weighing in at roughly 164lbs I am fairly strong and will battle with any player, any height, any weight. My main attributes would be speed, last time I ran 100m I clocked in at 11.0 seconds, dribbling and overall ball control is a favourite of mine whether it be taking players on, escaping pressure, keeping close control of the ball during open play or bringing the ball down under my control with any part of my body, agility is another natural strength of mine as I have participated in countless agility tests during college in the past. May I also mention again I'm 5'11 but I guarantee I will beat any player (6ft+) in the air with my estimated 35-40 inch vertical jump. I may not be the best passer around but I have improved my overall awareness and vision on the field assisting me in picking out a teammates run and slipping him a reverse pass through etc, stamina is a strength which I think I can improve even further coming top 5 in a handful of high school cross country events and shooting from 16 yards and further is an area I am confident about, decent in the box but lack the killer instinct and cool composure some natural out and out strikers possess.
Why should an Academy Director give you a trial : Nobody is more hard working or asserted as me whether it be in the gym or the training pitch, I'll run that little further, I'll push that extra yard, I'll lift that extra rep. Really coachable, love to listen to any feedback or watch video back on myself in order to improve and get better, easy going whether its with teammates or coaching staff, I've been playing football at amateur to academy to semi professional level and have learnt team cohesion is huge and the difference between a cohesive team and a not so cohesive team is huge! e.g the football is fast flowing and smooth and most times you will just know where your teammate is without even looking. I have years of experience at amateur level so know what a team requires from a leader in those grind it out games and also at academy and semi professional level so I know when to be patient on the field and not force a play and possibly lose possession and pick your pass and make the right decisions whether it be the 15th minute or the 90th minute.
