“After attending the PFSA level 2 course, I found the course to be really informative and learnt a lot, I also learnt how to watch a game from a different perspective. The tutors were excellent and I really enjoyed the group activities as you could give your opinion and learn from others. I’m still playing at the moment but feel the course has helped me to improve my knowledge of the game. Would recommend to anyone who aspires to be a scout and also those who want to improve their knowledge of the game.“
