Along with Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club and teamwear partners Vesey, we came together to give a select group of girls and boys from the Independent Schools Football Association (ISFA) an unforgettable experience at Brighton’s AMEX Elite Football Performance Centre.
The day started with drills focusing on possession, passing, and finishing, led by the Brighton Academy and Foundation coaching staff, giving players the chance to show off their skills and learn something new.
Next were Q&A sessions with first-team players Bart Verbruggen, Georginio Rutter, Solly March, and James Milner, where the young players were able to ask a variety of questions on topics ranging from their pathway to becoming professional footballers to some of the amusing stories and characters from their journey.
There was also time for some fun at the end of the session, where players got the chance to showcase their skills with the top bins challenge. There were three players out of the attending group who managed to score a goal in the top bins target.
