ISFA U11/U12/U13 DEVELOPMENT CAMPS

 

2013 DATES

There are no representative teams at the U11 and U12 age groups.  However, there are Regional Representative Teams at U13 level

ISFA holds Development Camps  during the Easter and Summer holidays for the best players at U11, U12 and U13 age levels. 

Nominations must be made by the school and not by parents.  Schools who wish to nominate must be ISFA Member Schools and are asked to nominate only their best players.  It would be unusual for any school to have more than 2-3 players in a year group of the required standard.

Schools wishing to nominate players should do so by e-mailing Tom Statham at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. , giving the player(s) name, age and parents’ e-mail contact details no later than 1st April 2013.  Parents will then be contacted directly in early/mid April.

Players will be accepted on a first come, first served basis upon receipt of booking and payment from parents.  There will be a limit to the number of applications accepted in order to ensure the quality of the experience.  These courses fill very quickly so please note that it is not possible for parents to “reserve a place” without payment. 

The cost will be £180 for 3 days/2 nights, full board accommodation and all football.  Please note that ISFA is a not for profit organisation, aiming to provide a high quality football experience for pupils at independent schools.  Our aim is to keep charges to a minimum.  Comparable courses run by commercial companies invariably cost double/treble this price.

The dates of courses in 2013 are as follows:

Friday-Sunday, 5th-7th April
U11 and U12 only (Years 6 and 7)
at Repton School

Week beginning 12th August (exact days to be confirmed)
U12 and U13 only (boys finishing Years 6 or 7 and about to enter Years 7 or 8)
at Bradfield College
