Coming up through the game, a large number of players will have missed opportunities to be at professional clubs. With the number of young players wanting to break into clubs at the youth team level, many will miss out on the opportunity. 

 

Lexaya player development has been designed to prepare 12 - 16 year-old players to step into academy football. 

​

There is a significant difference between grassroots and professional football, this is why all training sessions are led by ex and current professionals through their football experience.
