Who These Trials Are Built For We're recruiting ambitious U15 players for the 2026/27 MJPL season.

If your son loves football and wants to push himself in a competitive, positive environment — this trial is for him. 6+ Years competing in MJPL & JPL at Midlands and national level UEFA B Every session led by fully qualified UEFA B coaches 2× Weekly training sessions from June — serious development Step 02 — What Makes Us Different Why Star Soccer Academy Develops Better Players 01 Individual Player Development Every player gets a personal development focus. We coach the individual first, the team second — because better players make a better squad. 02 Serious Competition, Positive Environment The MJPL is demanding, but our environment isn't toxic. No shouting from the sidelines. No egos. Just high standards, honest feedback, and players who push each other. 03 Twice-Weekly Training From June Most grassroots teams train once a week. We're doubling up from June — because development needs repetition. A squad for players who want to train, not just play Saturday games. 04 Small Squad, Real Opportunity We keep the squad tight so every player gets meaningful minutes, proper coaching attention, and a real role — not a spot on the bench. Step 03 — The 4-Week Trial What to Expect Week by Week Trials can feel intimidating. Here's exactly what happens — so there are no surprises, and your son turns up ready to give his best. Week 01 Meet the Squad Introduction to the coaches and players. Technical warm-up, ball mastery, small-sided games. We're watching, but it's a normal session — come and enjoy it. Week 02 Position-Specific Work More structured coaching. Position-specific work. Tactical understanding in possession and out. We start to see how each trialist reads the game. Week 03 Under Pressure Match scenarios. How you make decisions under pressure. How you communicate. How you respond when things don't go your way — because that's what separates players. Week 04 Final Session + Honest Feedback Whether your son is offered a squad place or not, every trialist leaves with honest, constructive feedback on their game. We owe them that. ✓ No trial fee • ✓ No sign-up pressure • ✓ Four Mondays to show us what you've got HEAD COACH Head Coach photo (replace with real image) Meet Your Coach UEFA B Qualified Coaching That Pushes You.
