Reply To: Closing academy

[Anonymous]

Would the EFL permit a non EFL self funded academy to participate in their U18 programme and U16s games?
I doubt it.

I’m guessing the U18s would probably end up playing in the Lincolnshire Intermediate Football League?

And the 16s/15s in the local Jack Kalson League.

I’ve seen on Facebook players looking for new clubs for next season.

Perhaps just run the following?
U18s
U16/U15 joint team

U18s – Daws & Watson
U16/U15 – 2 part time coaches
Physio

Part time coaches = 10 hours per week

I reckon about £95k a season for those staff.
High Ridge facility hire = £?
Equipment = already in possession.
Kits = already in possession.

12 sponsors / philanthropists donating £10k a season should cover it?

Difficult days ahead.
