    Rotherham United Football Academy is developed in order

    to invest in upcoming footballing talent and provide the network,

    coaching, health and lifestyle advice that each player needs

    to make a successful career in football. If you are looking for a

    career in football, and live in the Rotherham United

    catchment, then your best chance will be to join

    Rotherham United Academy.

    About Rotherham United Academy

    Rotherham United Academy offer an advanced football

    development and education programme supported by

    expert and dedicated staff. Rotherham United Academy

    is located at: New York Stadium, New York Way, Rotherham, S60 1AH

    Rotherham United Academy use advanced technology

    and coaching methods to develop their players.

    They are actively looking for upcoming talent to join

    their academy, and are very selective about who gets in,

    as competition is tough.

    With the changes that have taken place in the football

    academy system. Academy Category 3 clubs are now

    free (U12+) to recruit from all over the nation.

    Previously, Category 3 clubs could only recruit talent

    within a 90 minute travelling time to the academy, but the

    FA have reconsidered this following thinking that the best

    talent should only fairly be allowed to play in the best

    academies even if they do not live nearby. This gives

    the very best talent the very best chances of success,

    thus growing our home grown talent for the international stage.

    This has seen a rise in host families being recruited at

    Rotherham United Academy, to help house young

    promising talent in safe family environments.

    Upcoming Fixtures at Rotherham United Academy

    Rotherham United Academy has a whole programme of

    upcoming activities, fixtures and events. Check the times

    of each match or look up the match venue for any

    of the Rotherham United Academy age groups.

    How to get a trial at Rotherham United Academy

    You must be selected to have a trial at Rotherham United

    Academy, so it is important that players are spotted in the

    right places at the right times. For some players, they

    prefer a direct approach sending in links to videos of

    themselves playing football, but it is worth bearing

    in mind that clubs recieve thousands of these videos each

    week and simply don’t have time to watch them all and go

    about their daily business, so the most effective way of

    getting scouted for a trial at Rotherham United Academy

    is to join a Rotherham United FC Soccer Schools. Scouts

    regularly select young players from soccer school sessions

    and invite them to trial at the development centres for

    Rotherham United, and anyone can play in their soccer

    schools so it offers an open door for all to get spotted.

    It is also particularly good planning to take your child to

    soccer schools as soon as they are old enough, as their

    competition will be doing the same, so it enables them to

    develop their talents in line with the same level as their peers.

    How to get scouted by a Rotherham United Academy scout

    Rotherham United Academy scouts offer players the

    chance to trial. Many players are lucky enough to find

    themselves in the right places when scouts are watching

    games, but Rotherham United are also very aware that good

    talent can slip through the net, so do offer players the

    chances to directly contact them with the below details.

    Understandably they are unable to respond to everybody due

    to the volume of applications, but this does serve as an effective

    way to alert scouts about talent looking to take their football

    to the next level and secure a trial for Rotherham United Academy.

    To get scouted for a trial, Rotherham United Academy will

    require the following information:

    Players CV

    Covering Letter

    Players Vital Statistics: Players position, Age,

    Date of Birth, Height, Weight, contact email/phone/address,

    current club, previous clubs, detail of any trials already

    attended, any representative honours such as school,

    districts, county etc

    Players school they attend

    Fixture list of your current team, including location and kick

    off time to be passed to scout

    Once you have collated all of the above information,

    email Rotherham United Academy

    via this address: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
    Rotherham United Academy will assess your application

    and decide whether or not to send a scout to watch the game.
