How is it that i can get into west ham academy to play for them when i'm older.
What do you mean 'How is it'?
I know someone in one of my classes who went to to join some Chelsea one.
How old are you?
And get scouted, go to trials etc.
not gna happen mate cos u cant kick a ball.
no corse i can't kick a ball, you're just having a go because i didn't buy your xbox account which you wern't gonna give when i payed.
and how do i go to trials though?
How old are you?
I'm guessing if you're 14+ you probably won't make it kid.
13 :] my mate plays for chelsea nd hes 13
Kyle, on Ben's account, you can't get in. It's one of the best acadamy's in the world.Quote:

how though
Trials mate, go find out.
We don't live in London but i'm guessing you do.
Go on their website, ask around.
This and the fact that it's one of the best in the UK.Quote:

It won't happen.
not many go through the academies and end up playing for the first team. West ham is one of the best in the country though :)
So only a few players have come through a academy..? News to me. :rolleyes:Quote:

I'm playing for the United Academy. I'm on 2k a month.
I'll have a word with Sir Alex. :P
First of all you need to join a local team and get scouted. My cousin plays for Coventry, he got scouted through playing for a local team in Northampton.
Get scouted, have trails, go from there.
Not true. I cant remember who but this person was found at the age of 24.Quote:

MOST premier league squads scout in well known acadamies or get told about a specific player that is really good and then go into the reserves. Acadamies arent really a chance to play for the reserves more a chance to improve and maybe be scouted.
If you have a local squad that have a 1st team and maybe even play in the Rymans league or BSP then you have more chance. Im in the Cheshunt squad at the moment training with the reserves. After that its 1st team so i remain hopeful even though i am 17. Infact, Kazim Richards was found at Cheshunt. And Boateng coached them until last week.
Edit: Mangle how was GAME for crimbo? Still working there?
Join a club juniors then keep training and in a few years when you're older you could be professional if you're gonna enough they maybe West Ham will wanna buy you, sorted. And I thought you support Spurs, why do you wanna play for West Ham..?
I support Arsenal. But i would want to start at Spurs between the 2. Cos in Arsenal you need to be v good to keep your spot unless someone is injured. Spurs i think would be better for me as, me playing for Arsenal would go to my head and i think i wouldnt make choices based on my career, i would make them based on the fact that i play for Arsenal, IE never leaving and throwing my career away.Quote:

I rate West Ham as the best academy in England, think of all the quality players that have passed through their ranks. It's amazing shame they're and always will be a selling club.
Best? I would say Coventry isnt far off or Reading. But sure he should start at a lower club or someone like Spurs. I know Spurs's coach (for the acadamy) Called Gregg. Anyways, what part of London are you from and i will help you pick a squad.Quote:

most clubs do trial days. you go to one of them and you perform out of your skin and hopefully you'll get picked to come along again. my mate played for mk dons but was released last season due to injuries.
Yea, i got it of LW could never find a decent copy. Thanks for the tip ;)Quote:

Join a local team, scouts randomly come to matches. Basically the club have to come to you. To make it usually you have to be scouted at a young age
