When and Where

The PFSA UK Football Trials hold our events in and around the country. We have delivered world-class trials not only in the UK but also overseas. Take a look above to find the closest trials day near you.

The next PFSA UK Football Trials will be held at Middlesex FA and MMU Manchester Platt Lane venues.

Who will attend on the day

The more appropriate question to ask is who does not attend PFSA UK Football Trials. We have a network of thousands of football scouts as members of the PFSA. We will have our co-founders and senior scouts at leading football clubs attending. All players highlighted on the day will then be sent to our network.

The PFSA also operates the UK’s largest independent team of football scouts through the PFSA Scouting Network. We represent teams directly through to the Premier League. The PFSA UK Football Trials will see over ten football scouts attend from this network alone.

What happens on the day

The PFSA Football Trials are a full day event from 9am to 3pm. The AM consists of all ages coaching then as we move into the afternoon we start with the trial matches. Snacks and refreshments are available to buy on the day to rehydrate and fill up on that much needed energy boost.

Video Analysis

The PFSA UK Football Trials will be using top of the range video analysis software to give our trialist the option to record their trials day experience. Having your skills on video gives you the edge over the competition and is vital in standing out from the crowd. One of the main reasons the PFSA decided to launch our football trials was off the back of hundreds of football CV’s being sent to us every month. Even though a football CV is useful information in gauging the level at which you have played at, it was always difficult to validate the skills on paper. The videos that were sent through always grabbed the attention of the team at the PFSA and our football scouts, leading to the inspiration behind providing a video analysis option.

The PFSA Head Tutor who is a UEFA PRO license coach, the highest achievement in football coaching, has developed a goldmine of training programmes. All this comes free once you register onto the PFSA Football Trials. To register separately use the link below.

Costs

The PFSA Football Trials costs £70 which involves much more than a simple trials day. The PFSA Coaches have and currently work for some of the top clubs in Europe. PFSA Lead Coach Dean Whitehouse currently works for Manchester United Academy and has overseen the development of some of the UK’s top talent including Marcus Rashford, Scott Mctominay, Angel Gomez and Mason Greenwood to name a few. We also use our match day footage to send to our partner clubs who couldn’t make it on the day, increasing your opportunities beyond the football trials day itself.
