Academy News: Latest Intake Of U9s

Burnley Football Club is delighted to welcome the latest intake of U9s into the club’s academy set-up.

The Covid-19 pandemic delayed the youngsters registering as an official academy player in May following their step-up from pre-academy status.

Traditionally, the new intake watches the Clarets’ final Premier League game of the season at Turf Moor, with a coaching session on the pitch at half-time.

They would also usually have a signing evening at Turf Moor with their family, followed by a match on the pitch afterwards followed by an-end-of season get-together with the coaches, families and friends of the Foundation Phase players.
