Stourbridge Football Club are delighted to announce that we have launched a full-time Women's Academy & Education programme in partnership with Dudley College of Technology ahead of the 2021-22 academic year.

There are a huge number of courses available and NOT limited to sports courses. You will have the opportunity to train as an elite footballer with exceptional coaching and support.

You will be presented with the opportunity to play within the ECFA Premier Division, and the programme presents a pathway to the senior women's game.

The programme also presents opportunities through US scholarships, higher education links and national trials.

Stour vice-chairman, Andy Bullingham said: "We are absolutely delighted to announce an extension to our already successful women's and junior girls' football programme.

"It has always been our intention to extend women's football into an education programme and 'mirror' what we already have for the men's section of the football club.

"Dudley College of Technology have proved to be a fantastic partner in both the football and education provided and it was always going to be the right place to set up our Women's academy.

"I'm extremely hopeful that local talented girls will attend the open days and trials to be part of something special with the football club," he added.

If you are interested, then join our Virtual Zoom meeting at 19:00 on Tuesday, December 22nd to hear about the programme and ask any questions you may have!
