    Sunderland Football Academy

    Sunderland Road

    Cleadon

    SR6 7UN

    The club’s Academy of Light opened its doors in 2003 and is rightly considered amongst the best football training facilities in Europe.

    The club’s players have access to magnificent facilities, including a hydrotherapy pool, top-class medical care and an indoor barn featuring a 4G synthetic pitch as well as up to 18 outdoor pitches.

    The low-profile buildings are deceptive – the lower floor is completely below ground level and packs in more than can be imagined from the outside!

    It’s a far cry from the club’s previous training ground, the Charlie Hurley Centre, which was made up of temporary buildings including an old cricket pavilion.

    OUR PHILOSOPHY

    The Academy aims to be professional, approachable and friendly and will give young players the best chance to develop on the pitch as well as socially and academically.

    We have a responsibility to develop young players in a challenging, safe and supportive environment with committed and experienced members of staff.

    We strive to create an environment where developing players are encouraged to experiment, make errors and express themselves.

    A system is in place which allows young players to progress to the first-team squad if they are prepared to work hard, be open-minded and stay committed.

    Players will be treated fairly and will receive advice and feedback as part of a holistic approach which will produce young men and footballers we can all be proud of.

    The educational development of every young footballer is a key part of Academy life, and we take our commitment to education seriously.

    We firmly believe in lifelong learning and the holistic development of every Academy player.

    This, together with our opinion that success is a journey not a destination, forms the foundation of our mission statement.

    All full-time scholars embark on an Advanced Apprenticeship in Sporting Excellence (AASE). The apprenticeship is comprised of a Level 3 NVQ Diploma plus an educational component. 

    Most scholars will study for a BTEC Level 3 in Sport as part of their education and this is equivalent to two A-Levels.

    The scholars also graduate from the Academy, whether to the professional game or elsewhere, with a referee’s qualification and an FA Level 2 Certificate in Coaching Football.

    The Academy is home to all the club’s representative teams, from the youngest age groups through to the U18, U21 and senior squads as well as the Sunderland Ladies team.

    Huddersfield Town Academy Strategy - A New Direction

    The Town Academy has recategorized itself from a Category 2 system under the Elite Player Performance Plan to a Category 4 system. This will refocus the Club’s efforts on the higher Academy age groups where it has had its success in recent years with the progression of the likes of Tommy Smith and Philip Billing; both who joined Town post-16 years old.

    The Club has switched its age groupings to echo the European model, with Under-19 and Under-17 groups running alongside an Elite Development Team (EDT) for its older talents.

    The Academy, under the leadership of Leigh Bromby, has also re-banded its age categories to fit the calendar year as opposed to the Academic year to try and combat relative age effect, which shows Academy age groups are usually full of August to December birthdays due to their physical development.

    The EDT and Under-19 sides will play bespoke, tailored games programmes that will be put together to challenge Town’s young players, whilst the Under-17s will receive the physical stimulus of playing against Under-18 sides in league action.
