East Lothian Football Development will be hosting their annual trials for the Primary aged P7 Boys Development Squad & P6/P7 Girls Emerging Talent Centre for the 2024/25 season.
Players selected for the Boys Development Squads will attend weekly training sessions at Whittingehame Drive 3G in Haddington on Fridays from 2pm to 3.30pm and will participate in regional games festivals at Oriam Performance Centre with other Development Squads in the South East region.
The weekly training sessions over the course of the year will be during term times only and there is a charge of £5.00 per session or £150.00 for the year and this includes full playing kit.
Players selected for the Girls Scottish FA Emerging Talent Centre will attend weekly training sessions at Whittingehame Drive 3G in Haddington on Fridays from 2pm to 3.30pm delivered by Coerver Coaching and will participate in regional games festivals at Oriam Performance Centre with other Centres in the South East region, all free of charge as part of a partnership with the Scottish FA.
We have a variety of payment options available and we strongly believe that every child has the right to participate in sport in East Lothian regardless of costs and should this be a barrier that makes it unaffordable we do offer support to those that may need it.
