Bacon’s College are launching the new Bacon’s Football Academy & Chelsea FC, Coach & Player International Development Training Programme.
The Academy will be offering the training programme to players aged 12 – 18 years old.
Sessions will be led by our Academy’s very own ex-International player and Academy Director of Coaching, Sergei Baltacha, who holds the UEFA top coaching qualifications – the UEFA Children’s Diploma and the UEFA Pro-licence.
The five or ten day programme includes 4 hours of coaching from Sergei Baltacha, and a 1hr English lesson each day from Bacon’s teaching staff. This is a wonderful opportunity for pupils to experience being part of an English school environment.
This is the first step in providing a pathway for young players and an excellent opportunity for all players to access high quality training and facilities to progress their football development and improve their technical ability in a fun and safe environment. Any player who shows the right quality and potential may also have an opportunity to trial with our football partners Chelsea Football Club’s very own Academy.
