We will maintain this approach to our work during 2018 and continue to develop success for all our full time education/football scholars.

January provides competitive u18/reserve team football matches and training to ensure technical,physical and mental skills are encouraged with our players. Utilising a sensible recruitment process all players have the opportunity of development with the three leagues we enter and one squad enables fantastic team skills to occur. At the Lichfield City Academy its consistent that if your good enough your old enough to progress to the first team or have trials at higher level clubs. We are delighted that 10 players this season are experiencing adult football.
