The UK Football Trials team have touched down in Australia this week as our commitment to helping playera all over the world continues.

The trials at Hervey Bay started today, June 27th, and are be run alongside with The SOAR Football Academy, an Australian academy that works with players from beginner to pro level, helping them to make the next step in their careers. 

Scouts from some of the biggest clubs in England have accompanied our team on the trip, as we are delivering three days of coaching followed by two days of back-to-back trials.

Having recently placed three Australian players into club trials in the UK, including Premier League club Bournemouth, strong relationships have been forged on the continent and the team are as excited as ever about being able to deliver our trials in Australia and give more players the opportunity to become a professional footballer. 

Director of UK Football Trials Harry Price, who is leading the trip, said: "It's been a great start to the week, the people and players are lovely, the facilties are amazing and we're lookign forward to the rest of our time out here. 

"We have a world-class team of coaches, plus an author, speaker and an expert in sports psychology and confidence out here with us for the players to learn from."
