The alumni project run by Liverpool FC's Academy keeps in contact and supports those who have been part of the Kirkby set-up and departed in years gone by.
As part of the scheme – run by Phil Roscoe, the Academy's head of player care – a regular newsletter is distributed featuring an interview with a former player to catch up on their career.
Back in 1996, Phil Brazier captained Liverpool to their first-ever FA Youth Cup triumph. Read on as he reflected on his footballing upbringing at LFC in a recent newsletter.
